The problem of the intermediate expansion address appearing in messages will be fixed in the next release. Unfortunately, the changes needed to implement this are pretty nasty and have gotten mixed in with a lot of other work in the general area of header line control, so I'm not going to post them. You can tell, however, that I've fixed it on the info-pmdf list, since you should no longer see the (secret) expansion address I'm using. Of course, this is security through obscurity, but that's about all that's possible in the present e-mail world. Ned
