[REBOL] Re: IP Address
I don't think you can. That's the problem with email - you don't know who it's coming from. That's why we get so much spam. However, it looks like you want to send your address from work, so your home computer can contact your work computer. Surely you can just embed the ip address in the mail you are sending. But I think there will be a problem: your work ip will be an internal address on a subnet, or a dynamic ip, and behind a firewall, so it will not be visible from the outside. I have an idea, both machines check for mail and send to the same mail account. But each puts an identifier in the message so that you can tell who it's from. When each machine checks the mail, it doesn't delete it straight away necessarily. It first reads the mail, and only deletes those mails which were intended to be read by this machine. To do this, you need to open a pop port to your account manually, like this: port: open join pop:// [user : pass @ system/schemes/pop/host /] Now read and examine the mail you have before deciding which to delete. (Can help with that). Anton. Hi again, few questions (again). 1. is there a way to obtain the IP address of a e-mail sender from the header of the message? 'cause I have not find it directly specified there, but those of the smtp servers which receive the mail. 2. I'm building a bot in Rebol that can receive mails, parse them and execute the commands specified in them. This is to be able to interact with my computer at home while I'm at work as there have only e-mail service and my home ip address is not static (so putting apache on it and then using CGI has to be tunneled through the use of mail as information vector).

[REBOL] Re: IP Address
Re: IP Address If you want to verify, you can use my Delete-emails.r script that let you see emails awaiting on your POP server, and allow you to see the full header with all Received: field. But I think you will only see the IP of your provider host, not you computer one. do http://membres.lycos.fr/didec/rebsite/delete-emails/delete-emails.r (View/1.2.8+ needed) Eventually, this script parse the Received: fields to pick IP addresses in order to check for spam in RBL (spamcop...), so if you want to do the same, you can pick the appropriate code in it.

Well it was just for statistical recording (call it data-collection-mania). For every message the bot is to be processing the important data is extracted and I thought that the ip address could be found as well. I will extract the first smtp server in the chain, where the mail should have started (that should be the last in the header list, isn't it?). As I said this is more for fun, just to undestand more about the language and on all many other things the language makes easy to manipulate. Nevertheless the constant update at work of the progress eMule is doing at home is not that bad 8) Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list, just send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with unsubscribe as the subject.

Yes thanks. I'll have a look to see if it can solve some problems I'm having with nested nodes. Isn't it in the library? I can't find it in my archive.
