I have a question... you can telnet to a mail port (25) and send mail
from it,,to any person, and put it's from anybody you want, are you not
suppose to do this,, or can anybody do this, can the mail be tracked ??
It would seem like a big security flaw if you could send false mail so
easily... ???
Curious,
