    Paul, I can recommend to disclose right away that you are advertising
    your own website.

    "Joseph Scully"'s post comes from the same IP:

    NNTP-Posting-Host: 82.42.53.187

    That is suspicious, but not conclusive. The NNTP posting host is the IP of
    the mail server that the message was first posted to. But, it does not tell
    us the IP of the poster...presumably, many people post using that same host.

    That is incorrect on two counts. First, usenet messages are posted to a *NEWS*
    server, not a mail server. Second, the NNTP posting host is the address of the
    machine on which the usenet client is running on, it is not the address of the
    server. Now it's true that several people could post from the same post, for
    example, if they're running a news client on a remote unix host like I do ...
    but in this case, he's running outlook express. It's also true that with
    dynamic IP addresses, it's possible that two different people could use the
    same address to post at different times -- but much less probable than it would
    be if everyone from the same ISP had the same NNTP posting host field.

    port 25 is the DEFAULT port for SMTP not the required one.

    R F C 821 says:

    `` The SMTP transmission channel is a TCP connection established
    between the sender process port U and the receiver process port L.
    This single full duplex connection is used as the transmission
    channel. This protocol is assigned the service port 25 (31 octal),
    that is L=25.''

    what's your point? i said it was the default and you point to the RFC
    that says it's the default. are you trying to say that SMTP is required
    to run on port 25? clearly, it is the default. it is often implemented
    on a different port to deter access.

    jesus, this is why we need to crack down on issuing green cards.

    No, it does not say that it is "default", it says that it is
    "assigned", period. That's the port that mail servers use to accept
    mail from all over the world.

    most mail servers do use that port. not using it does not mean it is not
    a mail server.

    port 25 would still be the SMTP port, even if you cracked down on
    issuing green cards.

    but you'd be busy driving a cab and i wouldnt have to read your nonsense.
