It does fail to recognize that ISP's, and especially Hosting Providers,
often have people using their email from work or, in the case of personal
domains, from another service provider, which means their test messages from
[EMAIL PROTECTED] to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would be from a foreign IP. But as a
weighted test it would still be very useful since the message shouldn't fail
any other tests under normal conditions.

  The problems here are that you have to enter your IP ranges (so the test
  wouldn't work automatically), and that some people will send mail from
the
  Internet (especially in the case of sending test messages).

 If the IP block is setup up in the Global.cfg like

  Netblock10.10.2.0/22,192.168.1.0/23

Then declude would know the local IP address block and this would make it
automatic.

Automatic after you enter the IP ranges, and if the IP ranges don't change.
:)

The non-automatic part is that the test would have to be disabled by
default, and people wanting to use it would need to add the list of
IPs.  However, it could be set up to automatically allow the E-mail if it
came from an internal IP address (which would satisfy the needs of a lot of
our customers).

Now for testing from the Internet I would log on to
Hotmail and send from me@hotmail to me@myaddress.  This e-mail would pass
for the return address and the recipient's address do not match.

Good point.  :)

This test is something that we are still looking into.
