numero = 12538
interpreted = N
texte = I've yust encountered another problem with the WinNT b18.If someone enters a wrong adress within the E-mail field, the receipt email is not delivered to him but instead of this bounced to the reply adress. Unfortunately the system doesn't stop to try sending E-Mail to the corrupted adress, resulting in thousands ;-) (Yeah I got one and a half thousand ! to my regular email account :-( ) of bounced E-Mails to the reply adress.It would be great if the system would check for a valid email adress and deliverability before accepting it! If that is not possible it should be told not to try to send the same email out for lets say more than 5 times or so.
