Possible problem with the From/To-Reply to script

1997-09-15 14:08:00
  I just installed Daniel's (DanS(_at_)bristol(_dot_)com) from to/reply-to 
script and
had non-valid (non-SPAM) match right away.
  What happend was Execpc sends SPAM abuse responces back to the
complainers using a BCC (it's a form letter, and they don't want everyone
to see everyone elses address), with a munded TO header. Only the way they
do it the Reply-To and From headers match and it's classified as SPAM. 
  Thinking about this I can see other legit uses for the From and Reply-To
headers to match and suspect we need to rethink matching on From and
Reply-To.

Just because MS-Windows holds 90% of the market doesn't mean it's 
superior. Remember 90% of all animal's are insects.
