Yes, I understand that. However, I am trying to understand what is happening in my example bounce, because -- it looks to me as if -- this is a new type of malicious tool that bypasses normal anti-relaying configuration. Somehow, even though I am not an open relay, somebody sent mail to me that my system bounced, then relayed anyway . . . What am I missing? -- Best Regards, mds mds resource 877.596.8237 - Dare to fix things before they break . . . - Our capacity for understanding is inversely proportional to how much we think we know. The more I know, the more I know I don't know . . . --
