    Hello;

    I am having a bit of a problem with sendmail (5.61).  When sending 
    mail from machine A, to a user at machine B (machine B is not in
    the same domain as machine A), and Cc'ing user at machine C 
    (machine C is in the same domain as machine A), the address of
    machine C is not expanded when it reaches machine B. For example:

    This:

         From: user1@A.cs.Foo.edu
         To: user2@B.cs.Bar.edu
         Cc: user3@C

    Should look like this, when it reaches user2@B.cs.Bar.edu, so that
        user2@B.cs.Bar.edu could do a group reply:

         From: user1@A.cs.Foo.edu
         To: user2@B.cs.Bar.edu
         Cc: user3@C.cs.Foo.edu

    Instead it still looks like this:

         From: user1@A.cs.Foo.edu
         To: user2@B.cs.Bar.edu
         Cc: user3@C

    

    My first question is, am I correct to assume that sendmail should
    be re-writting the "Cc" field? My second question is, what can
    I do to fix the error? I guess I could go into soething like 
    ruleset 6 and "make" sendmail tack on ".cs.Foo.edu" every time
    mail gets sent to "C", but that's stupid. I'll need to add an
    entry for each machine within the "cs.Foo.edu" domain. My third
    question is, and this is the important one, does anyone reading
    this care, that I am having the problem stated above? If you do
    care I'd like to hear from you, I've been losing sleep over this,
    (for ghods sake, this is suppose to be spring break!!).

    Thanks.
