Hey DM,

I just setup using POP and SMTP via Mac mail with Synchronet (its great that SBBS can do POP/SMTP email)...

I sent an email today, to: User One , with a cc: User Two  from mac mail.

When it sent I watched the logs and noticed this:

mail 0073 SMTP  deon relaying to external mail service: 4ma.xyz
mail 0073 SMTP  deon relaying to external mail service: bbs.nz
mail 0073 SMTP  Receiving mail message from  to 
mail 0073 SMTP  End of message (body: 563 lines, 30587 bytes, header: 13 lines, 590 bytes)
mail 0073 SMTP  Added message header #5548 from 'Deon George' #1 to 
mail 0073 SMTP  Added message header #5549 from 'Deon George' #1 to 
mail 0000 SEND Message #5548 (374 of 375) from 'Deon George' #1 to 'User One' 
mail 0086 SEND/TLS Successfully sent message #5548 (30589 bytes, 564 lines) from 'Deon George' #1 to 'User One' 
mail 0000 SEND Message #5549 (375 of 375) from 'Deon George' #1 to 'User One' 
mail 0086 SEND/TLS Successfully sent message #5549 (30589 bytes, 564 lines) from 'Deon George' #1 to 'User One' 

Notice that the log records both outbound emails as "User One", instead of the email to @bbs.nz should be "User Two" (on the last line above).

So I logged on and looked at sent mails via the ;MAIL, and noticed something completely different:

The message was recorded twice (OK), the first one rendered correctly (the receipients named matched the email address), the second one was different:

ÚÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄúúúú
³ Subj: Re: fsxnet application
³ Attr: Deleted  Sent  KillSent
³ To  : User One (yyyy@bbs.nz)
³ CC  : User Two 
³ From: Deon George #1 (xxxx@xxx.dege.au)
³ Date: Sat Feb 04 2023 09:50 pm UTC+11:00 (35 minutes ago)
À

The "To" has the correct name, but the wrong email address.

I checked my SMTP log, and it appears the mails were sent to the right people - not sure if their names were correct though...?
