Hi,

I need to put fake IP address into the header of the message sent to my
list.
I had 3 dos attacs and I think that they comes from some people in my
newslist.

How to hide or to send fake IP by smtp when connecting to the mail server of
possible attackers?

Thanks

Jim

Sure it's not just these new Windows worms?

Can't be done. NNTP and SMTP are TCP/IP protocols; for the data exchanges
to occur you must use the true IP address in your packets.

Sounds like you should delete them from you list.
