Re: Why not routing this address to ERROR?

This will act on destination addresses and return paths - if the Verify HELO
and Return paths option is ON.

 Verify return paths is on, and I have all my "routing to error"
 entries first in the router. What circumstances would cause this to
 fail? I've yet to have this email address blocked.

 From the log:
 01:51:23 2 SMTP-357([64.4.17.76]) {S.0000602203} received, 1282 bytes
 01:51:23 2 SYSTEM [S.0000602203]
 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 0+1

This is the message ID, not return path.

 From:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

And this is not the message return path either.

Thanks... now, not to appear too dense, but I need some help understanding this.. where do you find the "return path"? From the offending message headers:

Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Received: from [64.4.17.76] (HELO hotmail.com) by realimagesdesign.com (Stalker SMTP Server 1.8b8) with ESMTP id S.0000602203 for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Tue, 10 Dec 2002 01:51:23 -0500
Received: from mail pickup service by hotmail.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC;
Mon, 9 Dec 2002 22:48:56 -0800
Received: from 134.193.144.251 by lw11fd.law11.hotmail.msn.com with HTTP;
Tue, 10 Dec 2002 06:48:56 GMT
X-Originating-IP: [134.193.144.251]
From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Is it the "Return-Path" as specified in the headers above? In that case, it seems like <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>=error should work. Or is it something else, do I need to turn on more logging in SIMS to discover it? (And I can assume that the "From" entry in the headers is not the same as the "Mail From" address that is mentioned in the docs, which seems to be, from the docs, the same as the "Return-Path" address ?)

One thing I meant to mention in my first email, is that I'm using version 1.8b8

Thanks,
Linda
