    Anonimous email

    I am using a winsock to send email (anonymous). I have a problem is that the message received always have the Internet header(from clicking on message properties), whcih allows receiver to trace back to where the mail come from.


    How can I remove the Internet header? I think this is impossible.

    Thanks.

    Well the idea is that you send the message through a remote SMTP, and also use a proxy or bouncer too.
    That way even though there may be a header, it wont be of any use.

    U are OK

    You are right...!

    The headers are add by each MTA (Message Transfer Agent)
    from where the message pass for. And this headers have the
    information from each individual MTA.

    Your message >> n*(MTA's) >> n*(header's) + Your message

    So I don't know a "clean" way to send "fake" mails from
    an UA (User Agent). Because the mail will have that info
    in the header... well I have an idea but...
    I better reserve my comment.

    Going back to your question... Jeje.
    I think you have a string where you save your message, right.?

    Well this is the trick...
    In this string separate your header from your message using a Clean Line.

    Your Headers message + vbNewLine +

    vbNewLine + <<<<<<<<<<------ ADD THIS....!!!!!!!!

    Your message body


    And doing this way the you will see only
    the message without the headers....!!!

    I hope this is what you are asking for.
