So, if I put root@127.0.0.1 in the "From:" field of my news reader's
configuration, all of my posts will give this as my e-mail address.
More likely to be delivered is root@[127.0.0.1] or
root@localhost.nceye.net or similar. The thing to the right has to be
a name or a numeric address *in brackets*. Yes, this doesn't seem to
make terribly much sense. Another approach if you can do it is to get
an alias that looks like a message-ID. All my outgoing usenet posts
lately have said
From: Bryan Reece <23je8s$ksd@taz.nceye.net>
at the top, and no spam has come to that address.
Return to February 1997
Return to “Bryan Reece <reece@taz.nceye.net>”
