Thanks,
I
Had implemented those ideas, the main problem seems to be some
spanner(a) using a slight variation of 3 email addresses that were
used sometime ago. I am the only user of this mail server so use a
catch all address ( which causes it's own set of problems )
I think I need to tweak my header_checks file and test it using
postmap -a
Thanks again,
Jason
