Basically, what this thing does is fight spam. It does it by bouncing
the message back to your ISP, removing your address, putting the ISP
address in, and sending it back to the originator, apparently with a

being sent also, but Norton traps all of that. Just for the record,
all my mail, in and out, is scaned.
