I hate to say this Brian but it is your conclusion that is
silly.
Seeing as the mails that have bounced did not originate from
me but from some other person posting to the list and were
forwarded by freebsd-questions to an ISP's server from which
they were bounced there can be no way in which "the simple
cure" could be for me to change my headers..(seing as
neither I nor my systems neither originated nor had any
contact with the message) if that was the case why does this
mail not produce the same result? Also the mails I am
sending to freebsd-questions (such as this one and the last
one towhich you replied - are not beeing bounced.
Sounds to me like you do not (with many good reasons)like
MS$ but have jumped to the erroneous conclusion that Outlook
must be to blame when on this occasion when it could not
possible have any connection with the incident.
Does anyone have any useful theories?
