[RndTbl] Wrong Address E mail

[Sean A. Walberg]

Most spam is like that, from what I've seen.  It's no different than a
BCC.  The address in the To/CC headers really has nothing to do with the
address used for delivery (negotiated within SMTP).

BTW, has anyone had any experience with Razor (for spam detection)?
