Nope. I sent from SquirrelMail, so the mail was sent from the SMTP server on my web host. > Many places will bounce mail that originates from dynamic IPs. The SMTP server is on a fixed IP. However, my PC, which I of course use to run Internet Explorer and thereby access SquirrelMail in my web hosting account, connects to my ISP via a dynamic IP. I notice that SquirrelMail does include my local connection IP in the headers. Dynamic IPs for ISP access are more common than static IPs. > What they will do, however, is accept mail from the ISP's mail server. > > So, if you setup your SMTP server to deliver (relay) through your ISP's > mail server, you should be all set. As I say, the mail originates in the web browser of my PC, but is sent via the SMTP server of my web host on a fixed IP. I'm most interested in the fact that the the lack of an X-Mailer header in SquirrelMail messages raised the "spam score" of my message. I wondered if an X-Mailer header is part of the mail standard that should be incorporated into SM. Thanks anyway. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Oracle 10g Get certified on the hottest thing ever to hit the market... Oracle 10g.
