} (Reads what he just wrote... thinks: "Uh Oh".)  Or maybe not.  That has
} its own problems... like most spammers using blank "mail from"s.  -Kary

Perhaps the answer is that if the To: line is not the owner of the
account, the mail will be passed if the To: is the list address that the

make the To: look like a list.

Someone needs to run this by dirtlink support and participate in the
design.
