Unless they are f*ing idiots like gte.net. My mom has DSL through those
chunps. In their infinite wisdom, they have configured their mail servers
to allow relaying if you ****say**** your email address is @gte.net.
Yes, as dumb as it sounds it's true. So I can freely send email thru any
of the smtp.gte.net servers is I say I am [EMAIL PROTECTED] Try
it. Tell your spammer friends. I have told them numerous times and
explained in exruciating detail how to fix it, and they never responded
once. I hope they get spammed really bad. Ok, maybe I don't, but they
deserve it.
So instead of checking her IP and validating her that way (so she can send
mail saying she is from her domain I host), I can't use their smtp
servers.
