Re: Question: Redirect/Forward
Hallo Miles, MA What is the difference between Redirect and Forward. Redirect is to send a message to another destination without changing the body of the e-mail. (Technically this is done by placing the new address in the To: header. Since you're not supposed to send mail with a false From: header your mail client has to insert a Sender: header or as TB does an X-Sender: header. Only visible to those who look at the RFC-822 headers.) The To: header will change. Forwarding is to send a message to another destination by including the message into a new message in which you state something like: 'Look what a great message I got from somebody at sometime'. MA Have not found any MA supporting documentation via the Help file on Redirect. What I would like to MA do is when I get an email from a particular sender, 'bounce' it back with MA their name as the sender but from me. MA Is this possible? Yep, that's what redirecting does. But he won't know it's the message he sent to you, since he's in the To: header and not you. Note that the Message-ID wil be changed, the Date will be different and the X-Sender will be inserted, so if he knows his stuff he'll see it, but your average spammer won't care. -- Groetjes, Roelof -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Hallo Miles, Op dinsdag 30 oktober 2001, 0:24:49, schreef jij: MA Tried experimenting with the Redirect: MA Sent email to myself from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MAto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] MA When I click on the Redirect button, the email comes up with my sending MA address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) in the FROM field with the TO field MA BLANK. Well, that's what I said didn't I? The new destination is in the To: header, so when pressing the redirect button the To: field is empty, because you haven't told TB who's the new recipient. Actually I thought you wanted to redirect via a filter and then the To: field is automatically substituted. I guess it's kind of early for you, but I'm going to try my bed. -- Groetjes, Roelof -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
