ps BTW, the senders IP address is usually inserted by the MTA, not the

Pete,
You probably haven't read anything I've said before.
IP address is inserted by thunderbird MUA by HELO=my_IP_address
Hostname is inserted by evolution MUA by HELO=my_hostname
I don't like both cases but hostname, unless it is a default "localhost.localdomain" is worse then IP
address, that is why I proposed a patch.
MTA will report EXTERNAL IP Address which is acceptable, since MTA behavior is well known. If someone wants
to change it, they will use VPN.
Josh.
