Gosh, I hope not! I hate getting that spam that says it's from me. My Sysops would never allow our company email to be an open relay. If we had a business reason to say our email was "from" a different domain, they would explicitly allow that domain. All done from the SMTP server, nothing that I did from CF.
I appreciate this protection. On 7/12/02 8:48 AM, "Paul Giesenhagen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Isn't there a way around this ...
