Two nights ago my spouse told me that she had spent hours explaining to our elder spawn how to see and then decode SMTP headers.

Me: "He's never looked for himself? We have failed as parents."

So I will talk with the younger spawn about that. Can't have people growing up ignorant.

Nothing is magic, and if anybody tries to hide what they are doing from you, you can be sure that they are up to no good.

@dashdsrdash I used to telnet to hosts and type in the SMTP headers by hand, then the message I was sending. Just for fun. But that was decades ago.

This last time I reconfigured my home computers, I didn’t even bother setting up a MTA.
