Howie,
I hope you can clarify something for me. Below I have data from our log
files, and from the header of an e-mail received by a hotmail account.

(This issue occurs 100% of the time, and over 1000's of messages, but I am
including only this example.)
Notice in the log files the IP address logged is 66.202.57.209 when
connecting to the external SMTP server for sending mail. However, the
received header of all of our messages is showing a completely different IP
address, and it is not even the IP from the domains reverse lookup record.
So, my question is which address is the actual address that the POST server
uses to send the mail? The IP in the log file, or the IP in the received
header of the final message? Also, if the log file is the correct IP
address, then why do all the received headers show an IP that is not even
related to our domain (ezinemanager.net)?
I appreciate any help you can give me on this issue!
Regards,
Raven
