BUT - you guys - you can put whatever you want it to say, 
and I can still go into the properties in the e-mail and see 
your address that it actually was sent from.

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

Right.. well, its just masking it, but the email addy still 
goes with the
mail... whether its in the FROM field or REPLY-TO field. 
But... most ISP's
don't have checks to verify the originating email address. 
So, you can
pretty much put any address in there, and it'll work.

Such as... this specific post. Looks like its coming from 
The Keyboard
Cowboy himself... but, hence, it is only Sir Troth.

Actually, it depends on the e-mail program  In Poco, you can 
leave out your=
 e-mail address, name, etc.   But you know, of course, that 
all anyone has=
 to do is hit reply and the e-mail address will be apparent.
