OK. Here are the results, Remo. Thanks for looking at this with me. Correct me if I am wrong, but based on what I see in all 6 of these examples, the Return-Path is not relevant, but the FROM makes a difference. I think if the sender has put their human name into their email preferences, then it appears in the header beside the FROM and that is what Entourage uses for attribution. It appears that it makes no difference if the person is in your Entourage address book or not. Just to be sure this is not something specific to AOL, I followed example 3 with example 4 for someone who is not an AOL subscriber but otherwise is the same. What I also discovered is that sometimes the Add Sender to Address Book command works and other times it refuses to perform. Can't figure out why, and it does not seem to be dependent on HTML vs. Plain text 1. Here is the header of a message I received from someone who is NOT in my address book. Also, this message was considered "junk" by the spam filters. However, when I tested writing a reply, the attribution was CORRECT. > Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Received: from macweb.com ([209.213.207.8]) by agt-mail.asnap.com > (Post.Office MTA v3.5.3 release 223 ID# 0-71608U200L100S0V35) > with SMTP id com for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; > Mon, 8 Apr 2002 18:22:48 -0400 > Received: from macweb.com by macweb.com with SMTP; Mon, 8 Apr 2002 > 15:05:08 -0700 > From: Eric Bickford <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "WEB-FM-ANNOUNCE" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2.
