You get it working with gmail??? That is surprising. I noticed <br>
several years ago that gmail do not accept mails with a from address in <br>
the form "foo::bar"@<a href="http://mim.update.uu.se" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">mim.update.uu.se</a>, even though it actually should <br>
accept it.<br>

How does multinet rewrite the from address then?<br>
