Valid Return Address

Post by s.dot »

On one of my sites i've been using a fake email address for the from address.

admin@mysite.com .... i've yet to set it up in thunderbird or make it on the server.

could this be causing more failed mail messages than usual?

It's possible, although it should really only be the domain part which affects it. Is this just a recent thing?

Well the mailing list i'm using has been acquring new addresses for over a year. So I'm quite sure a bunch of the email addresses are no longer good, and therefore being bounced back to me. I was just curious about that. I guess the only way to find out is to create the account, send out a mail, and let you know the results :D
