Morning List,
Lately I'm getting a bunch of emails that are showing up with two
email addresses in the From: field.
From: "Persons Name <[email protected]>" <[email protected]>
When you look in your mail client (Outlook, Thunderbird) it's showing
only "Persons Name <[email protected]>"
Is there a way I can mark From: that has 2 email addresses in it as
spam? Pro's Cons?
Phil
From: =~ /^.*?<.+?\@.+?>.*?<.+\@.+?>/g
Can't imagine the circumstance where such a from: format would be
required
I've seen it used as a perfectly reasonable workaround for the
misfeature described above of many MUAs of hiding the address field in
To/From/CC headers. Because many people actually want to know what the
actual address is.
