Hello J and everyone else...

JA That's not true anymore.  The %From Macro doesn't need to be doubled
JA up.  The same thing applies to the %Reply-To macro and one
JA other that I can't remember.  This was changed not too long ago
JA (version 1.42 maybe?)

Is that so? Good to hear. The old implementation was a little silly
IMO. :-)

The third you're trying to think of may be Return Path?

Appreciate your help...

z there a way to check what I actually send to them to see if it is
z lower case?

Of course:
1.) Go to the send box, selexct your message and take a look at the
headers (shft-ctrl-K).
2.) Go to the log and see what had been sent (alt-L; watch for the log
at the buttom; or shft-ctrl-A).

%From will change the "From" name, %ReplyTo" will change the reply-to
name, and so on. Maybe your SMTP server checks this; it's likely if
they want to prevent spam.

This found the problem. I had generated a message, placed it in the
outbox, could not send it, and left it in the outbox. Then I heard
about the lower case problem. I changed all the 'properties' to lower
case, and tried tosend the message again - but the OLD message still
had the ucase user name, and of course, would not send. Well, DUH, now
that I checked the actual message that I was trying to send, the
problem is very obvious :-).

Thanks for rattling my braing...

Hello ztrader and everyone else...

z Do these change the user name, or just get the user name from
z properties? How could they change the name?

%from will actually change the "From" header. If your "From"
information is usually:
ztrader [EMAIL PROTECTED]

...then you can use this macro:
%from="" %from="Xtrader [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

...to change the "From" to that. Note the preceeding %from="". If you
don't do this first, TB will _add_ the %from as a _second_ sender.

Hello Jason,


On  Tuesday, September 19, 2000  at  09:33:42 GMT -0700 (which was 9:33 AM
where I live) witnesses say Jason Thompson typed:

 ...then you can use this macro:
 %from="" %from="Xtrader [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

 ...to change the "From" to that. Note the preceeding %from="". If you
 don't do this first, TB will _add_ the %from as a _second_ sender.

That's not true anymore.  The %From Macro doesn't need to be doubled
up.  The same thing applies to the %Reply-To macro and one
other that I can't remember.  This was changed not too long ago
(version 1.42 maybe?)

SMTP - what is sent?

2000-09-18 Thread ztrader

I have a mail account that I can no longer send mail to. There is
supposedly an issue which now requires all lower case characters in
the user name. When I set up the account in TB, it was set up as
U, with the first char in upper case, the rest lower case. I went
to properties and changed everything (I think :-) to lower case.

However, when I try to send mail, I still get an error that says:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] no such user. The error message still has the name
with a leading Ucase letter. I can receive mail, so there is such an
account.

Question: How can I be sure TB is not sending out an SMTP request with
U? Did I not find all the places where it needs to be changed? Is
it stored in the registry, perhaps? Any ideas to check this out to see
if the problem is at my end or theirs?

Thanks,

ztrader

Perhaps  you  are  using SMTP Authentication or POP before SMTP feature,
check  out  Account  Properties|Transport,  then  on the SMTP tab, click
"more".
