Note Submitter: gregBOGUS at BOGUSlorriman dot com ---- In the posting "gregBOGUS at BOGUSlorriman dot com 6th april 2005" I claimed that redirecting an email, via the mail() function, to a different email address was as simple as copying over the unmodified headers of the originally recieved email (which would, of course, include the original "To:" field). However it seems that this works for a Xampp install (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html) with Mercury as the mail agent, but doesn't work on my webhost without first removing the old "To:" field, and perhaps other header modifications. Therefore it looks like it would be safest to strip any header lines that shouldn't be there. <sigh> http://www.lorriman.com
