 Also, the Subject line is modified so that text beginning with '{Mon-' is prepended to it, to make it easier to see that the message is a monitor copy of a message, rather than a message originally intended for this person. Also, there are some header lines starting with 'X-Monitor-Recipient' or 'X-Monitor-Recipients' added to the message header showing who the message was originally intended for. This can be useful when monitoring outgoing messages, because if the message was BCCd to anyone, that recipient will not be visible in the normal message header, but will be in the 'X-Monitor-Recipients' header line. Also, the Subject line is modified so that text beginning with '{Mon-' is prepended to it, to make it easier to see that the message is a monitor copy of a message, rather than a message originally intended for this person.

 =====SMTP Authentication===== =====SMTP Authentication=====
 We //strongly// recommend that you use [[smtp_general|SMTP authentication]] if you use Message Monitoring for monitoring outgoing or internal messages. If you use SMTP authentication, then VPOP3 will know exactly who has sent a message (assuming their password has not been compromised). If you don't use SMTP authentication, then VPOP3 has to guess who has sent the message based on the sender's email address - but it is simple for the sender to change their email address in their email client's settings. We //strongly// recommend that you use [[smtp_general|SMTP authentication]] if you use Message Monitoring for monitoring outgoing or internal messages.
