Hi Christian,

No. When you have setup a secure link with another system it's not crashmail. Crashmail is when you send mail to a system you don't have a pre-configured secure link with.

Nope. On most systems the packet will just end up in the "none secure" inbound. What happens with packets in the none secure inbound is up to the sysop and how he configures his system, and the features his tosser has for this.

Bye, Wilfred.
