Is it possible to truly verify that a message has come from a specified user?
We would like the postmaster to be the only user able to access certain site-
wide lists, but need to be sure that the sender really is the postmaster. I
don't think it can be done but have turned on all the checking available
anyway. (If I tell the boss "no" then we've got a bit more thinking to do :-(
The only aspect we haven't looked at, and don't use at the moment, is the
rfc1413 Ident.

Thanks in advance,

John.
