RE: PORT # Question... Am I being hacked ?

["Chuck Lewis" <clewis@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,

It should tell you what kind of day I am having that I misspell my on name
in that last reply :-)

I notice that on the 2 servers I do hit for email, they both show :pop3 so
what is the :1214 at the end of the rr address ?

Thanks,

Chuck

Are you receiving inbound mail to your machine? It's possible that someone
using carolina.rr.com as their ISP is sending mail to someone in your
organization. If you're running Domino on your system, just for grins use
the Domino console sometime to see the activity going both ways.
