'dude' is in fact not a user on my box, I was in fact something I
choose trying to use as an example of something that was not valid.
Running it again against "asdadasdsadasdadsad" returns the same
result.
When I do send mail that matters I include a From header, I was just
trying to stick with as simple an example of what I expected not to
work as possible.
Ramil: I am surprised to hear that, as it directly contridicts what is
in the builder.com article, but supports my reading of the manual.
Hmm.
