If envelope-sender address == one of the addresses in .forward, and option MeToo is not set in sendmail.cf, message is certainly not sent to this address. When you set your return address in MS Outlook, you're actually setting not only address in "From:", but also envelope-sender address (which your Outlook presents itself with in "MAIL FROM" command, when talking to your server). --- On-line, adj.: The idea that a human being should always be accessible to a computer.
