Running 7.2.1 on a Sun Sparcstation 1+, SunOS 4.1.0 .  The default sendmail.cf
file is installed.

When I send a mail msg to one of my other ids, I see the following
header:
From lwv27@lwv27aws.CAS.ORG Wed Jan 30 08:47:11 1991

Why does that From line have empty () at the end?  From some machines I get thos
and from some machines I do not.  Any ideas?
