Well, that depends on who gets *this* e-mail...

And here's that test I mentioned... an email-based

end up in the HG forum. If it does... time to crack

Hey Mark,
I got a copy of my message back when I replied to this, but I also got
an "SMTP Undeliverable Message" error with an address of
"temp@verizon.net".

Hi Ralph,

Yeah, I'd temporarily changed someone's email address
to a bogus value, so that he could re-register under a
different username, with his real email address .

(the usernames and email address for CHGPA forum members
all have to be unique)

As a result, everyone posting/replying to the forum via
email would then receive an 'undeliverable mail' error,
for that deliberately bogus address.

(I'd actually call this a 'feature' because it will allow us
to keep tabs on bad addresses and get them fixed)

I've deleted the bogus email address, so this problem
should go away.
