What types of legitimate messages use null sender? Is it only DSN type messages? Someone else (Marrco?) said that Return receipts & vacation messages(?) do this (I don't think a proper vacation autoresponder does - I'll have to look at one of ours)? What about things like meeting requests/confirmations/changes? I certainly wouldn't want to block those, or legitimate DSN messages. -- Best regards, Charles ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
