Hi,

Whenever I send an email from my Linux Netscape (Communicator 4.72), it
will insert the lines:

Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

into the mail header. Or, more precise, if I look in the message while
it's in the 'unsent messages' folder, I can't find these lines. But when
I receive it back from a mailing list the lines are there.

My outgoing e-mail is (AFAIK) not going through sendmail, but NetScape
will send them directly to smtp.compuserve.com.

You should probably be able to see it in *this* message if you expand
the full message headers.


Well, my e-mail address as setup under 'Identity' in NetScape is
[EMAIL PROTECTED], but the [EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't make sense. My
local login in my Linux box is 'gus', all right, but the local private
domain name is *not* schaffter.com.

The result from this is that any message I send to any mailing list at
egroups.com will be rejected until a moderator is manually approving it.
Annoying both for me and for the moderator.



Questions:
How/where/why does NetScape figure out this [EMAIL PROTECTED] to put it
in the 'Sender:' field?

What can I do to avoid it?

Anyone else having noticed this problem at all?


Regards
Gustav
