Boy am I stupid (was re: John Kerry Lost my Vote)
Zac Bond
the originating IP addresses for the emails the girl sent me while she
was on her 'campaign trip' with the ones she sent me when she lived at
home. All but one were from the same AT&T Broadband IP address, which
I don't believe is possible. But the clencher was that one of the
emails came from a computer terminal at the community college she
attended in Ohio.
I see no way her email could have gotten an Ohio college IP address if
she was really in LA or Washington wherever she said she was when she
wrote it. I believe she is a liar and the whole story is false. Man,
why didn't I look at this earlier?
Oh yeah, Outlook makes it painful to read the full headers for emails,
that's why...:-(

In that case the originating IP listed in the headers would either be
either the actual mailserver or the location from which she is
telnetting from, right? Neither location is a mailserver, so far as I
can tell.
But anyway, the emails were all sent via Hotmail so short of direct
connecting to her home PC or a PC at the college, I dunno how those
IP's coulda gotten into the message. Maybe I am missing something.

Maybe. The pursuit of truth here seems kind of
academic if she made up a story like that. :/

Hey, this topic has become too techie for me to understand, so let me tell
you one thing: I am glad you've realized she is a liar now than too late.
People like that are dangerous and good people like us don't deserved to be
played. (*makes a kapui sound*)

So, your vote for Kerry is safe after all! Alambama will... well, be
totally unchanged, as you suggested. <:) However, you /can/ at least
elect to get rid of Outlook. As Wtcher said, uploading is possible with
third-party add-ons, and if you stick with your current POP3 provider,
there's always Eudora/Pegasus/Thunderbird/Agent...
Yes, I know we've had this discussion before. I think it's a timely
revival, though. :)

Now, now, Outlook isn't bad. I enjoy its scheduler and reminders and
that kind of thing. I've got an old copy of Spammunition installed
with it and it works very nicely I think. I tried Pegasus once, and
it felt very clunky and I seem to recall it not liking all my old
email archives. Eudora and Agent are of course not free, as I recall.
I don't remember using Thunderbird.
I use XNews to peruse binary groups, because OE is crap for that.
Ideally, I could find a program that wraps lines properly--but often
problems with line wrapping in quotes are the result of OTHER people
psoting with OE set to its default line length, so I don't know how
much a different program would help.
Ah well.
