I'm having also trouble with sendmail, but my problem is I can't seem to get the unix style From line in my front of the RFC822 headers. I have defined a macro: DlFrom $g $d , but the problem is I don't know what to do with it to get the From line in my local mail. I tried inserting it in the Define header lines but all I get are error messages or From: lines. (e.g. H?mflags?hname:htemplate) >Any help would be appreciated. Reply in this newsgroup or via e-mail.
