Hi Richard,
Hmm. Thanks. S/MIME doesn't protect sender's address, nor does PGP.
TLS is between the client and a server, so prevents my proxy from
working - that is if TLS exists and is supported and configured in
both the MUA and MTA - or in other words - I can't use it because it
won't work for everyone all the time :-(
Damned spammers - this would be easy if everyone was just honest...
(although come to think of it - the encryption would then be
unnecessary)
Kind Regards,
Chris Drake
