If so, the forwarding from Hotmail to Gmail wouldn't be evident in your mail log. (Assuming this is outbound mail you sent to the Hotmail address.) The "4f56a9eb.8040...@gmail.com" is a message ID, rather than an address. For example: Jan 23 03:22:56 lex postfix/smtp[6193]: 2F54585807F: to=<...>, relay=spam4.ihostexchange.net[66.46.182.94]:25, delay=4.5, delays=3.6/0.01/0.56/0.37, dsn=2.6.0, status=sent (250 2.6.0 <4f1d18d5.1050...@vl.com> Queued mail for delivery) The bigger question is why your mail client handed your Postfix SMTP relay a message with a Gmail message ID. That's assuming this is an outbound message that you sent. If this was an inbound message, then that's a different story. -Tom -- Tom Metro Venture Logic, Newton, MA, USA "Enterprise solutions through open source."
