Also, you may want to read http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue42/stumpel.html I have rewritten the `outfilt' script that this URL talks about so that the From: field is obtained from an email-alias file (clobbering the mail reader's alias<myaddr> to guard against accidental changes). Also, the CC:'s and To: headers processing is a little more sophisticated to ensure it will work under a variety of conditions. I will stick it on the web in a few days if anyone is interested. HTH, Mark.
