How do you set up the mail system to display the proper person's picture  
from /LocalLibrary/Images/People/person.tiff? I understand how to set this  
up for a local user, but what about setting this up for someone from a  
different domain?

I am running NeXTStep 2.1 on an '040 cube.

Thanks!

Name the file username.machine.domain.edu.tiff like:
lemson.ux1.cso.uiuc.edu.tiff
In the passwd file, you must have lines like:
lemson.ux1.cso.uiuc.edu:blah blah::: ...
and in the aliases file:
lemson@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu:lemson.ux1.cso.uiuc.edu

(The aliases may not be necessary...but mine seems to be set up that
way and it works)
