Century Lines: 23 In my previous posting I gave the specifics of the post -help command. I am running MH 6.7 on an SCO UNIX 3.2 system, and I am having problems with the 'From: ' attribute which is tacked on by post. If I have Signature: Gordon C. Galligher in my mh_profile, then it attributes: From: Gordon C. Galligher on all mail. Should this not be: (which is my hostname). In the mtstailor file I have localname: ping.chi.il.us systemname: ping.chi.il.us and I have tried these, and ignoring these, and it makes absolutely no difference. When a down site sees alone, it rewrites it to be which will clearly bounce. How can I get post to put the From: in their correctly? Is that a setup option with compiling it which I did not do correctly? Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Gordon. -- Gordon C.
