Doug, Yes. Thanks for confirming.
As best as I can tell, this is a defect in WebMail. It has impact if you are running tight filters. You cannot check who is sending email to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] When you save a message to the draft folder, WebMail does not just write the messge to the MBX. Instead, it rewrites the To and From and then sends it via SMTP to user-Draft. This has several unexpected implications, including forwarding of the mailbox, rule filtering, and parsing by Declude or any other SMTP delivery tool. It especially impacts rule filtering... The incorrect domain name will have the following characteristics: If you have ever used the IMail Client to access a mailbox, the following registry entries are created: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\_MAIL\USERID HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\_MAIL\UserHost If UserHost key exists, the incorrect domain name will have the value of that key. If the key does not exist, it will have the value of the FQDN of the mail server. This is definitely a defect as far as I am concerned. The second part of this, is that I have known for years that WebMail mailed the Draft to save it in the Draft folder. While I normally applaud re-use of code, I think that was a very poor design decision, because one cannot edit, save, edit, send a messge from a mailbox which has a forward set on it.
