mail reflectors

########################## Original Post ######################################

Does anyone know if there are any mail reflectors out there that one

could send mail to in order to test outgoing mail for non-local sites.

Essentially, I am reconfiguring sendmail to rewrite the outgoing

headers and I would like to be able to send mail someplace that would

automatically return the mail with the header so that I can examine

it.

There were several suggestions:

1) get an account at remote site and put in a .forward file ( not

practical for me )

2) send mail to: user@your.local.address@some.foreign.address ( does not work )

ie: the mail bounces as an invalid message - I guess it is returned, but not really what I had in mind.

3) send mail to: user%your.local.address@some.foreign.address ( BINGO !! )

Then there are the true mail reflectors:

mirror@germany.eu.net ( subject line must contain your e-mail address )
