Re: Bounce An E-mail-Addl Note

Regarding the comment that "The messages you receive in Gmail will appear as though they were sent from the User themself"....

There is a server option that controls this. The messages may:

1) Appear as though the original sender sent them
2) Appear as though YOU sent them
3) Appear as though they were sent from an email address created by prepending "nobounce" to the front of YOUR internet email address.

There are complex issues at play with this option. Option 1) causes the message to essentially have the from address forged (because your email server is NOT the "proper" server for the original sender's email...that can cause the message to be rejected as SPAM). Plus with option 1, any problems sending the message to your Gmail account will bounce it back to the original sender (which is confusing to them). Option 2 can result in an infinite email loop (if the message bounces back to you & you keep forwarding the bounce). Option 3 is actually the safest general option...
