Statistical anomalies (including most of us on this list) aside, everyone uses Outlook or Outlook Express, which are cleverly designed to cause great frustration when they get rejected. [One common result is the "I can't get my mail" support call, since sending is tried before receiving and the rejection is well hidden by default.] If one knows that one's sender population uses sensible MUAs, the game changes. --John -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
