That all depends on who the reader is and what is meant by clear. :) For me just putting that information in a header in which I could tell Mutt to display works for me. :) But for everyone else, viewing the source (or internet headers) is always an option. I don't know if that qualifies as "clear to the reader", but it is close enough for me. -- Jeff Macdonald jmacdon...@e-dialog.com _______________________________________________ NOTE WELL: This list operates according to http://mipassoc.org/dkim/ietf-list-rules.html
