There's not a general mechanism for faking the From field, though -- in general we thought it was something that shouldn't be faked. There are options for how the return address is built, though, especially if you're using AMDS, and these might make you happy. They're documented under "help AndrewSetup". If you want to hack, the code is in ams/libs/ms/init.c -- what you're worried about is the definition of "MyPrettyAddress". Good luck. -- Nathaniel
