A server may reject a none local From address, but practically most servers don't, since anybody can send any address in the Mail From command. However that address is used by the server to build the Return-Path, that's why we get so much bounces from SPAM or Viruses using our e-mail address :( Arno Garrels > -- > Rgds, Wilfried > http://www.mestdagh.biz -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
