They originate from my router. Also, the destination port is 143, so this is imap, and not related to sending mail, which will be on port 25, 587 or 465. Sure - I was thinking that they originated from my server, but I did say that my brain refuses to go into gear today . My suspicion is that you have filtering on a firewall or your imap daemon that is allowing you to connect to your imap server from your non-public network ipnumber (192.168.0.7) to its public ipnumber (88.97.17.41), but not to its non-public ipnumber (192.168.0.40). I think I should ignore this for today. That address (192.168.0.7) is a dhcp address, which must have been my laptop wifi connection, and since I had no wired connection at the time, if there had been anything really wrong I wouldn't have been able to use my mail, and I would have known about it. It probably represents a fleeting problem. Of course the non-public numbers don't go outside your network, so there may be NATting going on (specifically in the non- public -- public case) that's obscuring the issue. Since it's the router, the commonality seems to rule that out. By the way, you seem to have asked about this back in March. Did I ask something similar? I don't recall - but then I don't recall what I had for breakfast yesterday. I'll look back and see if I can find anything. All the same, thanks to your breaking my circle of thinking, I don't think there's really a problem. If it occurs again I'll look more closely. BTW, your reply-to plays havoc with normal list behaviour. Anne ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Since my brain is reluctant to get in gear over this, where should I be looking for the problem? but what is the problem exactly? The main problem is current inability to think straight :-) The message said IMAP, so my thoughts jumped immediately to my IMAP server. Absolute nonsense. The message came from the router. I'm not even sure that there ever was a problem. I was playing around yesterday with wifi settings, and that's a dhcp address, whereas I use static for most things, so was probably from a very short-lived situation. I'm going to ignore it unless it turns up again. If it does I might have more idea about what's going on.
