Correct -- that's the point I made earlier.

=A0 |
=A0 | =A0 and - the reason that you wouldn't want your address showing is
=A0 | =A0 because of the - I was going to say hundreds, but I think it''s
=A0 | =A0 more like thousands - of people who forward jokes etc. and never,
=A0 | =A0 ever remove ANY of the original senders
=A0 | =A0 information. so it goes out all over the internet, and is scooped
=A0 | =A0 up by unscroupulous people, and you get more and more spam. plus -
=A0 | =A0 =A0viruses from people who have that e-mail that has your e-mail
=A0 | =A0 address sitting in it.

Exactly -- which is why we say that correct "neticate" is to use a BBC list=
 to send to rather than putting the list of recipients in the "TO" column. =
 This is also how you keep people's addresses from being on a zillion=
 computers.....where they can be used by malicious virus scripts, etc.    By=
 using the BCC to send, you eliminate this specific compromise.

=A0 | =A0 Right.. well, its just masking it, but the email addy still goes
=A0 | =A0 with the
=A0 | =A0 mail... whether its in the FROM field or REPLY-TO field. But...
=A0 | =A0 most ISP's
=A0 | =A0 don't have checks to verify the originating email address. So,
=A0 | =A0 you can pretty much put any address in there, and it'll work.
=A0 |
=A0 | =A0 Such as... this specific post. Looks like its coming from The
=A0 | =A0 Keyboard Cowboy himself... but, hence, it is only Sir Troth. :o)

=A0 | =A0 Actually, it depends on the e-mail program =A0In Poco, you can
=A0 | =A0 leave out your=3D
=A0 | =A0 e-mail address, name, etc. =A0 But you know, of course, that all

=A0 | =A0 to do is hit reply and the e-mail address will be apparent.

=A0 | =A0 =3DA0 | =3DA0 I have discovered that I can send my emails ALL in BCC
=A0 | =A0 and so no =3DA0 | =3DA0 one can get the addy's of friends if someone
=A0 | =A0 forwards =3DA0but is
=A0 | =A0 =3DA0 | =3DA0 there a way to protect MY Name from going out? 
=3DA0Seems
=A0 | =A0 like I
=A0 | =A0 =3DA0 | =3DA0 might have seen that somewhere but can't recall how
=A0 | =A0 they did it
=A0 | =A0 =3DA0 | =3DA0 or where I saw it, does anyone know about this? =3DA0 |
