This certainly makes sense. They seem to do a combination of checks. I have had no problems at all since I define a valid domain name, 'ac-martin.com' when sending mail and I make no effort to mask the source IP, which will again turn out to be a valid one though it points to my ISP's zone. - -- -=Allie C Martin=- List Moderator | TB! v1.60m | Windows XP Pro PGP/GPG Public Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=2B0717E2 _________________________________________________________________ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQE86iitV8nrYCsHF+IRAhwYAKCk5CzLudKEcVMaDjjBX4nQxFPEawCcD/nN bIcKj+fYE3Lhn97t78Q/iRQ= =RC+X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
