Hey Gary, Before you or anyone else on this lists continues to waste time with a n00b like me, I'm going to first educate myself by reading /usr/share/sendmail/cf/README (paying special attention to ANTI-SPAM CONFIGURATION) :P Thanks! -Jason On Tuesday 21 October 2003 19:10, Gary wrote: > Hi Jason, > > On Tue, 21 Oct 2003 06:44:13 -0700 GMT (10/21/2003, 8:44 AM +0500 GMT my > time), jason dictos wrote: > > j>I run my own mailsever, and I just wanna know its possible for > someone to j> send an email to my mail box, but yet have no one specified > in the TO or CC j> fields.

If it isn't too much trouble, would you mind specifying just the basics, like what MTA you are using? A null sender is authorized by the RFCs and this is for bounces. We need a lot more info.
