I can think of even better examples :) [EMAIL PROTECTED] cound be... FTP address. So - as Peter said - it is really really wrong to give a - let's say - address without saying what kind of address it is. And it's not our fault that some people don't respect this rule. One more thought: you may always set up SMTP transport on your server ;) - -- Maciek xmpp:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1-nr1 (Windows XP) iD8DBQFC5U4i7knNPWzAbeURAq7nAJ9dr/gxm8fGFHzrtFcvTZZ2gzRZWQCgyGHD nBJVON3ICtkjJyaPQkon3hg= =QDDD -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/jdev
