   Even though WinPoint's mailer transmits 5D AKA's to the remote system,     
   WinPoint's mail processor inserts 4D addresses in the MSGID's.

   Ummmmm? :-)

   Yes it does(and can - see the Guide)but it doesn't alter the fact that     
   WinPoint's mailer transmits 5D addresses to the remote system.

   The problem here is that the "@" preceeding the domain is hard-coded.     
   If the user doesn't specify a domain, WinPoint's mailer will transmit     
   ":/.@", which is an invalid address.   
      
   After further testing, I've discovered that it depends on which mailer     
   the remote system is using. I can reproduce this problem on two     
   systems, both of which are using binkD. I've tried it on a third     
   system, which is using mbcico(MBSE) and I had no problems with the     
   session.   
      
   Regards,   
   Martin
