-
- Sorry for the confusion. I should have said "COLOSPGS has no :mailer tag
- in its entry in BITEARN NODES", which is to say that they have not
- registered a mailer to handle incoming or outgoing mail. This is no
- guarantee that they have none, but it is an indication. So is the lack
- of Received: lines in the header of the sample message you gave.
-
- You might try writing to somebody at COLOSPGS to verify my conjecture.
- Rob Garvie (GARVIE@COLOSPGS) is mentioned in several roles in their node
- entry in BITEARN NODES.
-
- By the way, is the blank line that follows the "***" line in your sample
- really in the message as received?
