You could bash on smail-2 until you're blue, and rmail still should *NOT* remove the 'remote from ' portion of the "From " header. If you don't want/need this format in your local mailbox, then whatever is doing the local mail delivery (/bin/mail? lmail?) is what should be doing the editing. In fact, lmail by default re-writes the "From " header without the 'remote from ' portion. -- Greg A. Woods woods@robohack.UUCP woods@Elegant.COM VE3-TCP UniForum Canada & Elegant Comm.
