rerouting emails

how do you reroute an email through someone else

[soybean]

Can you access your email account via web browser?  If so, take a look to see whether you can setup mail forwarding there.  I can do this with my Earthlink account.

If this an email account associated with a website, such as [email protected], logon to your web host server account; you should be able to set up mail forwarding there.

Oh you could do SO MUCH if that was possible.
Sending emails to someone and make it look like someone else sent it.

Hmmm, the original post was by davisw, a "Guest".  Since when can Guests post in the forum?  And, I wonder why he apparently re-registered as MacDaddy121 to reply.

[Calum]

All his posts are by him as a guest.
I guess it's because he deleted his account, I've seen it a few times with different people.

[soybean]

OK, so "guest" equals "ex-member" in the old forum.

Ah, that explains it....I thought it was weird a guest posted a question...

[dl65]

davisw or MacDaddy121 ..........  What you are refering to is called "spoofing" ......  A practice used by individuals who are up to no good.
I trust you don't expect any of the members here to tell you how to do that.

Its possible, yes, but it is certainly not full-proof.

I will not tell you how, but I will tell you this:

Since its put through a falsified address, and is not the same as the server it was sent from, it gets marked as "Unable to verify Sender ID" and can tend to be automatically junked.

So its pointless

And another issue is allowing someone to reply to the sent email

Sounds painful. But you could probably do it by setting up a wireless network.

Someone's receiving E-mail as I am writing this, actually.

Are you saying, that to prevent brain-spam, that we all should wrap our heads in tin foil?

Tin foil and lead, then our brain's will be free of....that

Well, someone might be receiving spam as we speak and microwaves pass through a lot of things.. 

And no, I suggest wrapping the room in tin foil. Ever seen the movie where Mel Gibson plays the guy who lost his memory..?

There used to be some remailers out there that you could do it with.   

A couple years ago or so,  I wanted to pull a joke on a friend, and couldn't find the one I'd used before.   
I got the feeling that they had all been taken off line....  didn't really put much effort into looking around much.      They were probably so abused that whoever ran them just pulled them.

How can I trust you?  Do you have the original CD, the one with Microsoft all over it?

...just in case /sarcasm.

[Sid]

It had something to do with the Accounts section.

I remember when I was at school being able to pretend to be someone else.  Only worked one-way, as in you could send to them as if you were someone else, but if they replied it didn't go back to you, unless you added a reply to address, but at that point it was obvious who done it.

Thing it's been worked out of the system now.  I mean we are talking like 5-6years ago.

I haven't read this thread entirely,

but I read enough to comment, (to Raptor), that signifyes plagiarism, . .

and want to know why I did not receive an e-mail from a post that I addressed to myself from, "send this post", can I get a serious answer ?

Do you even know the meaning of the word 'Plagiarism' or are you too stupid to look up the dictionary?

It's even easier with the "Answers.com" add-on for Firefox.

Alt + click.

You can use Gmail to send emails, so it looks like someone else sent it. Accept if you actually look at the details of the email its obvious.
