It would also be a spam reflector and open a can of worms IMHO. I wonder if those people clever enough to dig out the RNAME really would need the help of an auto responder. My point about avoiding the "." was more to say "." != "no address" (waiting for someone to point me to the existing (bad) precedent). -Peter . dnsop resources:_____________________________________________________ web user interface: http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~llynch/dnsop.html mhonarc archive: http://darkwing.uoregon.edu/~llynch/dnsop/index.html
