This seems like a "dumb question" but I can't find the answer. MAILER provides facilities for "synthetic mail addresses" (longer than 8 characters, having no corresponding userid) with the RSMAIL and FWDMAIL special exits (we are still on 2.07). However, both of these modify the RFC822 header origin and destination fields. This causes problems if you want to set up an alias for a mailing list or moderator on LISTSERV (because LISTSERV doesn't want to see the MAILER as the origin). Is there a way to forward mail using BSMTP alone and leaving the headers (except for Received:)? Or perhaps folks have done this with special servers? Any pointers or confirmation of no way to do this in MAILER would be appreciated. Thanks! ----------- Marty Hoag ND Higher Education Computer Network US Mail: NDSU Computer Center Phone: (701)-237-8639 Fax: (701)-237-7464 PO Box 5164 / UCCS Bitnet: nu021172@NDSUVM1 (NOTE 0 = ZERO) Fargo, ND 58105 Internet: nu021172@VM1.NoDak.EDU UUCP:...!uunet!plains!vm1.nodak.edu!nu021172
