Hello;
Hmmm...
Well, I don't have a clue why your Spam filter would jump on my smtp
mail server for this - it never did before. Yes, I recently upgraded
from IMail version 4.02 to version 4.04, but I *choose* IMail because it
has an SMTP anti-mail-forwarding filter built in (so no one can steal
use of our mail server for Spam.) Funny you'd think *we* are spamming
with it. <grin>
IMail is an NT-based email server (smtp, pop3, ldap, whois, etc)
commercially available from IPSwitch (www.ipswitch.com). Paul
Mockapetris is their CTO, BTW.
So maybe someone could explain to me (offline) what the problem is with
its X-UIDL setup? And cc Paul Mockapetris?
Also, in the interest of getting some info on the list about the IFWP
meeting in Reston, can you post a clean version of my message to the pab
list? Or should I resend it?
Thanks!
