And > how does the other end parse it out? POP3 certainly won't stop you. For example, you can have an entry in your virtusertable (assuming you compiled sendmail with that feature; I don't think it's default yet) such as: @mydomain.com mydomain@freebsd.org and then the company in question will retreive the mail via POP and sort it out somehow on their end. I've heard of a number of people doing this with such packages as Eudora Pro, but I haven't tried it myself. If you want to get semi-seriously into sendmail hacking then there are -- in theory -- a number of ways you could accomplish something like this. I think the book _Sendmail Theory & Practice_ has some info on it, but mine's packed up in a box right now (I just moved to California, yay!) so I'm not certain. -- J.D.
