Wietse and Viktor,

My boss thinks I posted too much detailed information in my original email 
during our discussion 
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.mail.postfix.user/245050. 

Can I edit my original message or withdraw my original message?

Thanks,

Carl

Sorry, delivery decisions MUST NOT be made based on email headers.

Email headers do not say where mail comes from, and they do not say where mail 
goes to.

If this is a surprise to you, then you only have to look at this mailing list 
message. It has my porcupine.org address in the From:
header, but it was distributed from cloud9.net.  It was delivered to you, but 
it does not have your address in the header.

I recommend that you read up on RFC 5321 and RFC 5322, the Internet email 
standards.

        Wietse
