Note that RMX-type proposals also break .forward, /etc/aliases-based mailing lists (probably >80% of all mailing lists in existence are actually just aliases and not done through a proper MLM), and have various other problems. > I have been > using tunnels of various description to "be" in many places when I work > on my laptop for more than half a decade. Indeed, but tunnels are not always possible or feasible, and in many cases should not be required. If all you want to do is send a public e-mail message, you should be able to use the local mail relay facilities available to you. In fact, many networks *require* you to use the local mail relay facilities. Of course, some of those are stupid enough to insist that you use a recognized local domain portion for your envelope sender address, which screws you even more. -- Brad Knowles, <brad.knowles at skynet.be> "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania.
