Changing the headers
Can someone please tell me how you can change the From: header in the email? I know it's possible... my computer teacher used to do it all the time... but how? (unfortunatelly his explanation was to hard to comprehend for me at the time). Thanks a lot... And in case it helps... I'm using a VAX.. regular text account. If it makes any difference. Doesn't it have something to do woth getting into the mail port? Roki
Hi again :-) Changing the from header is easy -- load netscape and change your from addy... Or else you can telnet to port 25 of any given smtp server and type help -- the rest is great fun. If memory serves, type HELO (one "l") to introduce yourself, then declare the recipient and the sender and finally any headers and the message. But type help -- smtp servers are very friendly. Later Mike -- I'm sure we will find out in a few years that Microsoft invented the Net. Or brought it to the masses. Or saved it from a certain and early demise. Or all of the above.
