	I have an application for which I only have the binary,
so I can't modify it.  This application issues sendmail commands
using the "-f" flag, like so:
		sendmail -f someuser destination_user

sendmail would permit placement of parameters in /usr/lib/sendmail.cf
to strip out the "-f someuser" portion of the command before it was
passed on to mail.  I have a need to do this.

	Now that I'm using smail, the application's sendmail commands
get passed off to smail.

	THE QUESTION IS THIS:

	  Is there any way to set up smail's config file,
	  /usr/lib/smail/config, to strip out the "-f" flags?

If anyone knows how I might do this I would appreciate a reply.
