(I looked for a frequently-asked-questions file on cse.ogi.edu...)

Is there a way to have the From: hdr in outgoing mail change depending on
where the mail is headed?  I would like to have a From (or Reply-to if
appropriate) hdr of "duanev" for mail sent within my domain (mpd.tandem.com)
and "duanev@mpd.tandem.com" for eveything else.  Can this be done?

I would also like to encourage an extension to the sort command.  I would
like to use sort in the middle of a pipe such as:

	pick -s Part | sort -s | pipe uudecode
