What is wrong here?
I expect that the mail server at lists.sourceforge.net is attempting to call your mailserver with an "envelope to:" address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] How your mail server responds to this will give the answer. You don't say what mailserver you are using at your end. -- Alan Chandler [EMAIL PROTECTED] First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. --Gandhi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
