I think eskimo.com's mail system is actually slightly broken, and that Alan Connor isn't posting mail as if from eskimo.com. I looked at my copy of the parent post, and here's the headers Old-Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> From: Alan Connor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I think eskimo.com is rewriting that localhost into eskimo.com. So it isn't actually getting any extra load from Alan Connor... it's just slightly damaging the mail. (Which doesn't strike me as a large bug, since he shouldn't be posting with that address, anyway. Why people think that a fake From: but a valid Reply-To: is any use is beyond me.) -- Alan Shutko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - I am the rocks. "That unit is defective."
