But does this really matter? What difference does it make if the originating system address is forged. If it's sending SPAM then it's AWL score increases not the system handing it off to you so it effectively is still doing it's job.

That's a special case. You cant trust any other received header other than the ones added by your own system. The only IP you know for sure has handled a message is the one that delivers it to your system. --- Lars Hansson ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Access Your PC Securely with GoToMyPC.
