(I did a direct reply to you and it came back.) i don't have any account w/ freebsd.org; i sen[td] mail w/ "parv_fm" user id w/ one of many domain names registered by fastmail.fm. i think what happened is that somewhere some delivering program, when it saw bare "parv" in the From:, added "@freebsd.org" as the end (by default, even though the email address was enclosed in between "<>"). at least that's what happens in some of the junk mails when i finally see it. i use fetchmail & postfix. i haven't noted the mail software of the two different servers where i have the accounts. - parv -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
