It will only work if you have an account or an alias on your providers site 
for heisspf.
So i suppose one should ask how do you recive mail directly on your machine, 
or does you mail go to your provider.
If its the latter and your account at your provider is "peter" then simply 
make a mail alias there and have the mail redirected to peter.

I presume that is a typo on your part Peter as it is NOT a valid email 
address.
I have tryed a test mail (or was it 2) cant remember to heisspf@skyinet.net
and they have not come back, (as yet).

try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community
