Hi All, I'm rather a newbie at all this. How do I hide my IP when sending/getting e-mail from the server and from the recipient(s) of the e-mails..? Cheers. Mark Sargent.
You really can't. The IP is added by your mail server. The only way you could change this would be on your e-mail server, but you could only remove the Received: headers that existed prior to your mail server sending the message out. When the next mail server receives the e-mail, it will add the IP of your mail server to the message and there's zilch you can do about it. If internal IPs are super secret I suggest hiding them with a proxy. -- Brian Keefer --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attend Black Hat Briefings & Training Federal, September 29-30 (Training), October 1-2 (Briefings) in Tysons Corner, VA; the world's premier technical IT security event.
