As you may remember, my local ISP, named kavosh.net, has many troubles with
its mail server. I don't know what happens to my e-mails sent from that mail
server, and even If I sent it from my free POP3 accounts, I can't see it all
of the time.
So I have to use free international POP3 accounts. Last ago, I have
subscribed to many mailing list using [EMAIL PROTECTED], as a forwarder to a
POP3 account, which is now [EMAIL PROTECTED] But I had to have
[EMAIL PROTECTED] in FROM: field to be able to send to mailing lists, and
most POP3s don't accept any address other than theirs in FROM: or REPLY TO:
fields.
I got your nice advice about using several account to subscribe to different
mailing lists, instead of forwarding by one permanent address, i.e., KISS
method (:-) .
But from time to time, I use SMTP service at iname.com to send with my
"@4u.net" address in FROM field. This is all, and nothing else...

Sorry if my discussion was somewhat off-topic. (:-)
