"Not being contrary...but asking a question about Mailwasher.

* *

You can read E-mail from the "Server" prior to downloading..is that correct?

Would the logs of a harvester show that his little trick got at least as far as your Domains server?"

As far as I know, no.  The reason I say that is that I use MessageTag on most of my outgoing mail (this is because I send out serial numbers, login details etc and I need to know that the recipient has received them).  With some mail I cc or bcc myself and if I preview the message in MailWasher then I don't get notification from MessageTag that it's been read - if I dl the message and read it in OE or Outlook then I get the notification because the message is not actually downloaded, it's read direct from teh server and no images or attachments come through and it stays on the server until I either delete or download it.

This may help answer your question, but I don't know any more technicalities than that - I'm not a techie person LOL!
