It seems that no matter how many times I explain it they just don't get it. Does anyone know of a good reputable source on the Internet which explains how e-mail addresses are spoofed which I can point them to? If it was in layman's terms all the better but I think just showing them an outside resource might be good enough as they seem to think we should be able to control it and are shirking our duties.
