MY apologies. I was responsible for that. I will politely sit down and shut
up after I comment on Julian's reply.

I hate the thought of bouncing spam and virii, as I have been on the
receiving end as well. MailScanner software has been criticized solely on
the fact that it allowed a 'bounce' of mail messages. Otherwise the
software received rock-solid reviews. I agree with why Julian took it out.
I wish it would not be put back in.
However, since there are certainly other ways of bouncing mail for those
determined to do so, you should probably just put it back in.
I like Dustin's suggestion of the 'bounce' header. I like to know whom to
look out for!
Cheers!
