YMMV, but no. For the record and archive it's especially not pointless to have raised the fact YOUR demand is primarily YOUR demand and anybody else reading the thread show take into account, there's a RFC that maybe make the system, configured the suggested way, non-standard compliant. If THAN this other somebody decides it's OK, I don't see a problem (unless I run into this non-standard behavior by trying to send a mail to this someone, which gets hit). But having the "eternal memory" named Internet I think it's pretty important to have as much relevant facts before making a decision; And solely a "you can achieve this by doing that" without any word of "obey this too" can be harmful. > I do know it's valid, but I want to ban such mails w/o exception. Feel free; I didn't intend to hinder you. > Never seen a single mail using it, beside spam, I've never seen an H-bomb, so it doesn't exist? No, of course this is invalid, and so is your argumentation. BTW: I didn't requested to allow multiple "From", no matter what. I raised the point that *maybe* a better way to go (not for you exactly, but in general as a starting point for anybody thinking about this problem too) is checking for "Sender" if multiple "From" exist :-) > so I do not care RFC in this case. Which is your perfectly valid freedom to do, no matter if arguments leading to this attitude were logically correct ;-) -- Best regards, Peter _______________________________________________ spamdyke-users mailing list spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org http://www.spamdyke.org/mailman/listinfo/spamdyke-users
