Works great, no problems.

I've seen headers >from other SIMS servers that show the appropriate hostname, so I know >its possible...Just not sure how to implement it for myself. Why would you like to take influence here? My headers look like the following: Received: from [212.71.103.177] (HELO PC003.rumantsch.ch) by rumantsch.ch (Stalker SMTP Server 1.8b8) with SMTP id S.0000177916 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 28 Jan 2003 16:11:40 +0100 The argument of the HELO command displays an office PC's name, appended by the domain name of the SIMS server. However, there is no computer named "PC003.rumantsch.ch" The office PC is just called PC003. The domain here in the office is _not_ rumantsch.ch. From the Mac, it is: Received: from [212.71.103.177] (HELO [172.16.7.2]) by rumantsch.ch (Stalker SMTP Server 1.8b8) with SMTP id S.0000177919 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 28 Jan 2003 16:19:31 +0100 There it just displays the internal IP address (172.16.7.2) and the router's IP address (212.71.103.177). I think (but I am not sure) that this is a "problem" of how the computers are set up and how the mail applications used identify themselves to the server (SIMS, in this particular case).
