How to interpretate email address
ykffc wrote:
Thanks for clear explanation. When the Outlook email is opened, if Mary right clicks on "ABC, Accounts" and select properties, it reads: Display Name: ABC, Accounts Email address: Email-type: SMTP Is there any relation between Mary Painter email and ? This looks to me like whomever sent the message is using mailing list software to send it. They have a list, "abc-accounts" that contain a number of addresses, including Mary's. They sent their message to that list processor, which in turn sent out the message to the people in the list. That processor included in the "To" field, but used the Bcc field to include the real address, Mary's. The contents of the To field really has no bearing on to whom messages are delivered. It can contain anything at all. The REAL delivery information is handled by the SMTP envelope the mail routers use. This of it as the post office delivering a piece of real mail. The envelope contains the real address. The letter inside can say "Dear Mickey Mouse" without affecting the real addressee. -- Brian Tillman -- Brian Tillman
