Indy is a commonly used component used to write SPAM server. All you need
to do is change the default agent string to something else.

Subject: [DUG] Problems with TIdsmtp
I've been having problems with xtras smtp servers. We have an application
that sends out emails to large numbers of people (up to thousands) via
BCC. The problem occurs when sending email via xtras smtp servers, as
they reject any recipient (indy raises an exception) that is not a valid
xtra customer ([EMAIL PROTECTED] for instance). This
wasn't a problem when using indy 9 as I would just remove the person from
the BCC list and resend the email - nice and transparant to the user.
However since upgrading to indy 10, it has started sending blank emails to
every recipient up to the invalid one.
Has anyone else seen this problem?
I have a number of solutions:
1) Go back to indy 9 - I'd rather not do this as I upgraded to indy 10 to
solve a different problem (although this one is much bigger).
2) Send a seperate email to each person in the BCC list (this could be
slow if sending to 500 people - although I already have to break up the
email anyway as xtra have a limit of 100 recipients and paradise have a
limit of 50)
Any Ideas or Suggestions?
