Okay, I just tried Yahoo and one of the headers reads: Received: from [82.45.207.20] by web30108.mail.mud.yahoo.com via HTTP; Wed, 09 Apr 2008 21:49:34 PDT 82.45.207.20 is my external IP address. So I don't know why you're not seeing your IP address in the emails you send via Yahoo. This is via a free Yahoo webmail account http://mail.yahoo.com/. --M. On Mar, 18 2008 17:12 CET, WM wrote:
Right so it is Yahoo then that don't. It is not that Gandi are doing anything unusual, it is that Gandi should be providing for those who have a registered domain name and being hosted and/or DNS services, an IP traced back to Gandi (as per Yahoo - I mean look: Yahoo anyone can sign up to for FREE and without any real authentication/verification compared to that required when registering domains with Gandi: a credit card is used, a correct address and contact details need to be given, or you lose your domain. So if my domain is @xyz.com and it is by Gandi, my IP address should start at Gandi (and the original be suppressed). This is an acceptable privacy issue, if Yahoo (and must be others) do it, why not Gandi. If I am logged in on SSL to my Gandi registered domain Email, why would gandi need to show the general public the terminal i am using - that is on Gandi's record if need be. CryptoHeaven too, if I use their system, you will only see the Cryptoheaven IP, no matter where I am. CH know the IP and if I abuse, I will lose my account. Why should we be forced to set up our own mail servers at Gandi and/or go via a VPN, when Gandi can already do that. Yes, yes, protocols, but they are not cast in stone. Otherwise Yahoo wouldn't do it. And for Gmail yes maybe the WEB version also does not give the IP. Same imho should be at Gandi at least on web version and SSL accessed/authenticated version.

So I don't think gandi are doing anything unusual here.
