I also have SBCGlobal (DSL) and it does indeed go through prodigy.  I use this account strictly for PCSOFT.

Subject: [PCSOFT] E-mail header information

I was experimenting with sending of mail using Outlook 2003 and tried to<br>suppress the display of the e-mail address in the "from" field of the<br>received message. Since Outlook does not allow a blank value when setting up<br>an e-mail account, I simply put the word "none" in the field. When I sent a<br>message to one of my e-mail accounts using this new account setting, I<br>received the message showing that the message was from "St Innocent Parish<br>[[log in to unmask]]". The "St Innocent Parish" part is what I put in<br>for the name, but where did the prodigy.net part come from? The header<br>information shows that this message did come through prodigy. I sent it<br>through my SMTP server with sbcglobal.net (uses Yahoo). Is there a<br>connection between Yahoo/sbcglobal and Prodigy?<br><br>A second question pertains to my original goal. Is there a way to avoid<br>including the e-mail address from the "From" field when using Outlook?<br><br>Thank you for any info.<br><br>Peter<br>-----------------------------------------------<br>The NoSpin Group<br>[log in to unmask]<br><br>      "Hold No Punches.."
