I've got MMDF IIb version 43, and I'm trying to get it to work
with bang-only paths. Basically, I'm trying to send messages
to a site which does not support '@' addressing, so all addresses
in the message To: line must be in the form: x!y!z.
However, when I send a message addressed in this way to the
site, MMDF puts out the following: x!y!z@myhost.co.uk, where
myhost is the name of my own system. This is rejected by the
receiving site.
I know I can set up MMDF tables to ensure that the file containing
"rmail" instructions which is uucped to the remote site sends
the correct bang-path, but this site also needs a proper bang-path
in the real To: line of the message.
I've tried to queue the messages in a variety of ways (including
piping to MMDF's sendmail lookalike, using the MMDF msg program,
and directly piping to MMDF's submit program). Is there any
way of switching off this addition of @ information?
