Matthew There is no way (short of a lawsuit - good luck!!!) of stopping the forgers. Yesterday I received about 20 bounces for spam that I supposedly sent from my personal account. Unfortunately most users and email servers are not clever enough to detect the forgery. Users complain that you sent the spam. Mail servers bounce the spam back to the forged return-path or from header. Even SIMS is not immune to this spoof. -- Neil Neil Herber, RGD Corporate info at http://www.eton.ca/ Eton Systems, 15 Pinepoint Drive, Nepean, ON, Canada K2H 6B1 Tel: (613) 829-4668 ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
