I don't know where you heard this, but I just tested mail between
4.0FCS on a Sun-386i and 3.4 on a Sun-3, and your news appears to
be wrong.
It appears I was rather premature in my posting. The news I heard was
just as I reported it, but it was reported incorrectly. Sorry if I
alarmed anyone...
Anyway, the latest info is that internet mail appears ok, and uucp
mail appears ok, but sometimes a mixture will result in the From line
looking like "From <your login> <date>". The "date" always appears.
More data needs to be gotten before I can remove my foot from my mouth.
