I think you are saying that you don't see yourself on the To: or Cc: list...but you are receiving the email. Correct? If so, this is because you were listed as a Bcc: when the email was sent. Your address was in the RCPT list of the SMTP envelope. Under certain circumstances, usually when no To: is in the header, some email servers will add the X-Apparently-To header to the message. This behavior is most noted with SPAM sent by robots. -- Never be afraid to laugh at yourself, after all, you could be missing out on the joke of the century. -- Dame Edna Everage -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
