This discussion comes at exactly the right time for me:
I am in the middle of getting our site registered in the .nl domain.
The only obstacle now is the *required* use of an MTA that will
assure that "To:", "From:" anc "Cc:" fields contain fully qualified
domain addresses only.

We currently use smail 2.5, which will take care of "To:" and "From:"
but not "Cc:". 

Has anybody out there hacked smail to rewrite the "Cc:" field?
If so, please mail me the diffs!
