Usually they "come" from addresses like > [EMAIL PROTECTED], > [EMAIL PROTECTED] even [EMAIL PROTECTED] :) this is really simple, as i've stated in a previous mail. script parses message, takes the address listed first in the 'to' and uses it as 'from' for the confirmation mail. this works perfectly fine when it's a mail from person A to cluetard B, but delivers funky results (which we are seeing) when used on an account that receives mailing list traffic. this is understandable, since the author obviously never intended for it to be used that way. nekkidness or no nekkidness doesn't make a difference in this case (the website seems to be a service for adult gallery webmasters) - if they wanted to harvest e-mail addresses, they could just harvest from the archives. this is clearly a case of misconfiguration (ie confirmation script enabled on an account receiving maillist traffic). regardless, it would be nice to get rid of it. can someone on the admin side send an ID'ed test to subscribers to see where this is coming from (or is this considered a minor nuisance not worth bothering with)? paul -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
