Anyone want to admit to being presinet.com?

And if so, would you mind stopping your mail system from regurgitating
copies of pghackers traffic?  It's especially bad that you're sending
the stuff with a fraudulent envelope From, ie, one not pointing back
at yourself.

It is not uncommon for an environment that has already suffered
through one forced renumbering to forbid the use of hard set IPs in
application software.

With IPv6 we will just see more and more of that.
