Had a problem with MailWasher when I just recently got around to trying it out - it wouldn't 'bounce' any emails I marked, even though I had it set up correctly.
Even though I hadn't yet 'donated' for the program, I gave emailing the author a shot and he replied today: "The good news for you is that MailWasher does work and can bounce with bellsouth's mail server. *Here's our form response to the problem: ------------------------------ If you have MailWasher 1.32.9 or later, the problem may be that the return-path isn't set in the bounce messages. *Normally bounces, which don't have a return-path, are only sent by mail servers - not by user programs. * Some mail servers expect all mail coming in from user programs to have a return-path. *The latest version - 1.33 beta (on the www.mailwasher.net site now) can be set up to use the old bounce message if necessary. *Download and install the 1.33 beta version, and double-click on the attached file - set-return-path.reg. *Then answer 'yes' to import the setting into the Windows Registry. *That should fix the bounce problem." I've applied the provided 'patch' and I'll let y'all know if it works (just in case anyone else's been having the same problem). Pete
