I just did some testing with this reply to address info from the webmail
server. This is what I found.

I sent a message using my webmail account that had my Name entered under the
Settings tab

I got a message in my Outlook and Yahoo accounts that said the message was
from Dave Joyce

I then sent a test message using a webmail account without the Name Setting

In Outlook it  said it came from [EMAIL PROTECTED]

But in Yahoo there was no name in the Sender column.

When I looked at the message in Yahoo it showed that it came
From: "" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

I looked at the headers in Outlook and it showed this

From: "" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

It seems Outlook is smart enough to present the email address if the quoted
name is empty but Yahoo is not.

I then used Outlook express found the reg entry that controls SMTPAddress
and set it to blank. (Can't do that from inside program since it requires
something in there to save the settings) I then resent the test messages.

Yahoo now properly shows an email address in the senders list. The only
difference is the From line in the header looks like

From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

So I would assume having the DLL or ASP code altered to remove the double ""
would fix this problem. Where in the code does this get set? Can we do a mod
now or do we have to wait for a fix from Vircom?
