I'm afraid you're wrong. I don't know if this is the case, but spoofing the source address to establish a TCP connection is a well known attack tecnique. Granted, it's not an easy one (excluding when used with some OSes), but it's possible (and nmap itself has options to check a particular system weakness in respect to source address spoofing, namely -O -v). ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
