Nobody responds when you write abuse_...@abuse-att.net

Why is that address included in the rejection message if nobody is going to
respond to inquiries sent to that email address?

And I've heard the same bull over and over again that the email address
likely gets inundated with messages.  If that's the case, then figure out a
better way to handle inquiries so that you can separate the legitimate
inquiries from the not-so legitimate.  I like the idea of directing users
to a web page where you enter the IP address that is being blocked and a
challenge email is sent to postmaster@
to show that the person submitting the concern can speak for the IP
address's usage.

Or better yet, if you're going to automatically reject new/cold IPs then
design a way to announce to AT that these new/cold IPs will soon start
sending out mail so that they are not automatically rejected.

We're all on this mailing list to learn (aren't we?).  Maybe take some of
the input you see from the messages on this mailing list and work to
improve the systems you offer.

If we're all tired of seeing "Anyone from BLANK able to help with the IP
BLANK being blocked?"  Then perhaps this is a nod to BLANK that they need
to do better at handling these inquiries or that their means of blocking
IPs is too liberal.

ATT runs their own inbound servers. Lili is not ATT. Please always use

Re: [mailop] envelope or header address?

OT question, can return-path be customized by sender MTA/MUA? Or must it  be 
envelope?



Return-path, envelop sender, bounce address and MAIL FROM are all synonyms for 
the same thing.


Mailing lists always change it when they forward a message.  Mass mailers do so 
as well.


Some plain forwarders, à la dot-forward, change it, either to satisfy SPF (SRS) 
or in order to have bounces reach someone who can remove the relevant 
forwarding recipe when its target is removed at the other end.  Some others 
keep it intact, in order to let the original sender become aware of bounces 
(and thus reveal the final destination.)

Please don't do this again. It's one thing for a representative of an 
organisation to invite contact off list; it's something else entirely for a 
third party to make that invitation.
