A method for anyone on the net to determine what there path is to respond to an article, note the information in the header and then abort the response. Another way is find from your system's postmaster the path. Typically, paths are: user@system.type or user@system.company or user@system.school However, some involve some relays in the path: user@system.company.relay.network The rest of the names in the path are the systems transfering information from point A to point B. =====John Pimentel=====(508)626-1000
