When one sends an e-mail to multiple persons or addresses, PLEASE use
the BCC address line for the distribution. Do send the message TO
yourself. This minimizes the ability to clone or copy e-mail
addresses. By avoiding visible e-mail addresses it is much more

This underlines how important it is to use an e-mail program that

The email address means little. Email systems will accept whatever you

Once you find the initial IP address in the headers, you can use any
