I'm not familar with the Qsmtp class, but if it accepts any valid RFC
(2)822 address string then using 

"Project Manager<www@www.cf.missouri.edu>" 

should  make most mail clients behave as you would like.

Hi Owen,

Too bad that it doesn't work.
I guess I need to find info about the Qsmtp. There must be a way to do it.

Thanks anyway!

Richard

I must say, the only thing I found on it dates back to 1999.
Richard, if you find things this old which haven't been updated, 
just say NO.  Ignore them, otherwise you'll be wasting your 
time (and maybe ours).

Here's a second to that idea.  JavaMail works fine, and is 
a sufficiently well-supported API from Sun.

Couldn't find much on a quick google about it, other than it appears to be
a very quick and dirty public domain piece of SMTP code.

I would advise investigating the JavaMail API instead, which can handle
properly formatted RFC 822 addresses.

Strong suggestion: invest a *little* time in learning the JavaMail API,
and use that. It's a de facto standard, and is extremely powerful. It
handles this sort of thing quite well (fully RFC-822-compliant from
addresses, MIME with attachments, the works..).

The Session/Transport stuff is a teeny bit too powerful, but the
defaults should work great as long as you set up the properties
correctly for the Session.
