Some incoming messages say from "[email protected]" -- but the "sent by" is someone else entirely, having nothing to do with john's address.

What's causing this? What can I do to prevent it?

TIA!

Warmly,

I believe you're seeing this:

"This bug is really a new feature in SP1"

You can only correct your Address Book. This cannot be disabled.

Hope this helps!
