I'm having trouble on my HP9000/825, HP-UX Version 3.10.  I installed a ported
MX/IDA Sendmail Version 5.61++/IDA-1.2.8.  The network mailer selected is TCP.

The trouble is I'm not getting a correct old style From_ -header in front of
the message.  The header is all ok, when sending and receiving a local msg,
but when the msg is received from the network, the line says "From root ..."
instead of the real author.

Any help would be appreciated.  Reply in this newsgroup or via e-mail.

Kim
