And this is how it should be. Your IP shouldn't be sending email directly to the recipient's mail server. If you *are* running your own mail server, you should be smart-hosting through Verizon's email server. If you're not running your own server, the presence of your IP won't matter when sending to properly-configured mail servers. -Don _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
