I'm just using Outlook Express, and it does whatever it does.  "Main" is the
local name of the machine I was on within the embedinc.com local network.
I'm not sure whether there is any information on that machine for OE or
anything else to figure out the external IP address is assigned to the
embedinc.com domain.

And no, I don't want 15 replies suggesting how I should be using this and
that mailer, some non-MS operating system, or whatever.  I've got things to
get on with, and worrying about the standards conformance of my mailer when
it doesn't effect me isn't anywhere on the list.
