Using the undocumented callable notes interface, is there any way to "forge"
the sender field so that the topic or reply looks as if it came from another
person?  The information I have implies that this can't be done, by not having
the capability available.  Posting on behalf of another user is really
necessary when it comes to writing gateways into Notes.  If the process has to
be suitably privileged, that's ok.  I'm just curious if the mechanism exists at
all.

If it DOESN'T exist in callable notes itself, how would you go about forging
such an identity?
