Emmett.hendrick Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 And the Lord said "Let there be light" Would be a great devolopment IMHO. Mail Spam is such a pain. Especially when you have a site of users ringing you to sort it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCold Posted February 1, 2004 Report Share Posted February 1, 2004 You can do the same thing by reading the e-mail source and looking up the sending server. AOL is just making things "easier" to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCold Posted February 2, 2004 Report Share Posted February 2, 2004 Epsilon 5, They can forge the e-mail return address but they cannot cover the sending server IP from appearing in the source code. This is how I was able to confirm that SC was not sending the spam e-mails awhile back. Icecold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
