Thats the To: line of this message Russell, as it came in here. I
assume it was originally filled in to be to me and that you cleaned
that to prevent your getting a bounce from verizon?

And no, it hasn't bounced yet as it typically will lay in the queue
somewhere in lala land for anywhere from 4 hours to 6 or 7 days. By
that time the friggin message is no longer germain to the
conversation, so they get deleted here.


Now, this message did bounce, and the bounce message is damned confusing...

From: Mail Administrator <Postmaster@xxxxxxxxxxx>
To: gene.heskett@xxxxxxxxxxx
This Message was undeliverable due to the following reason:

Your message was not delivered because the destination computer was
not found. Carefully check that it was spelled correctly and try
sending it again if there were any mistakes.

It is also possible that a network problem caused this situation,
so if you are sure the address is correct you might want to try to
send it again. If the problem continues, contact your friendly
system administrator.

Host coyote.coyote.den not found

The following recipients did not receive this message:

<""@coyote.coyote.den>

Please reply to Postmaster@xxxxxxxxxxx
if you feel this message to be in error.
--------------------------
coyote.coyote.den is indeed the name of this machine, but I should be known to the outside world as gene.heskett AT verizon.net.

So the $64,000 question is how did that domain name even get to the outside world.

Here is the complete header from the message that elicited that response from verizons servers.

And there sure as heck isn't any mention of 'coyote.coyote.den' in that.
