List) Newsgroups: comp.mail.uucp,comp.unix.xenix Subject: Help with SMAIL and XENIX rmail Message-ID: <5775@mrspoc.UUCP> Date: 7 Mar 89 17:36:51 GMT Reply-To: itkin@mrspoc.UUCP (Steven List) Organization: Transact Software, Inc., Mt. View, CA Lines: 47 We are running a Plexus P/60 (Plexus System V version 1.7) with SMAIL 2.5 and a Wyse pc386 (XENIX V/386 version 2.3) running the same SMAIL 2.5 (that is, built from the same sources). We have been successfully using SMAIL to broadcast messages from the Plexus using aliases. The messages arrive with the appropriate From: and Subject: lines still in place after being rebroadcast by SMAIL. THE PROBLEM: When we moved a group of people from the Plexus to the Wyse, we set up aliases on the Plexus (mrspoc) to forward mail to those people on the Wyse (guinan). Unfortunately, the mail received on guinan has a four line header, as follows: From uucp Tue Mar 7 09:00:10 1989 To: itkin Date: Tue Mar 7 09:00:10 1989 >From itkin Tue Mar 7 09:00:09 1989 remote from mrspoc Received: by guinan.UUCP (smail2.5) id AA06894; 7 Mar 89 09:00:09 PST (Tue) Received: by mrspoc.UUCP (smail2.5) id AA28715; 7 Mar 89 09:00:26 PST (Tue) Message-Id: <8903070900.AA28715@mrspoc.UUCP> Date: 7 Mar 89 09:00:26 PST (Tue) From: itkin@mrspoc.UUCP (Steven List) To: itkin@mrspoc.UUCP a test My forwarding address on mrspoc in the aliases file is itkin guinan!itkin HELP! Please. This will definitely push me OVER THE EDGE. I suspect that the culprit is the XENIX mailer (lmail? rmail?). Please MAIL your replies and I will summarize if there are sufficient answers and there is sufficient interest. Thankyouthankyou.
