DYNDNS SERVICES Email, Mailhop, Etc...



I sent the following to dyndns and at the end of this 
message is the reply I received from on of the sales Reps.
I then left a message to call me because their reply 
addressed only one of my concerns.

I need to know the total picture. What will the recipients 
of the the mailhop see as the reply to address. I don't want 
the mailhop address to be the reply to address. Will the 
mailhop cause problems with my recipients ISP?

So is there any experience that the blu members have that 
they could expound on here?
