"Registered user mode attempts to relay a message through the server to be tested. You must be a registered abuse.net user, and the relayed message will be addressed to you. If you're testing a server that accepts mail for your e-mail address, abuse.net can generate a temporary alias in the abuse.net domain that will be forwarded to you."
