   Well, I have been using smail3.1.19 for several months now, and
everything works better than I ever imagined.  However, there is one
problem that I have, and can't seem to figure out a clean way to do
it.

   I have several mail servers that are aliased via the pipe-driver
transport.  The message comes in, gets piped through our scripts and
then we generate a response; your typical archive server type stuff.

   I have been relying on the $SENDER environment variable to
determine the correct return address, but I am having major problems
with it.  It appears that the SENDER variable is created from the
"From" line (not the "From:" header) in the message that is *supposed*
to be created by the UUCP transport system.

   Of course, several uucp sites around me don't correctly put their
entry in the message headers (no "Receieved:" lines).  Is there an
environment variable (or a way to do this) that will allow me to use
the "From:" (not the UUCP "From") line with all the name-comments
and other garbage stipped off?  I would like to have a "@" type address
if possible rather than a bang path, althought probably not possible.

    If its not possible, would it be easy for me to hack in the code?
