i was unpleasantly surprised when i got some mails which had local host domain name in the "From:" header. i was thinking that may be somebody was forging the header & was out to get me, until i saw another one like... From: customer@local.domain foo@local.domain inc. foo@foreign.domain ...that obviously is due to the lack of quotes around "customer foo inc.". i use postfix, fetchmail, & procmail. my guess is that postfix is doing it, but i may be wrong. where & how should i look (and suppress) the behaviour? thanks... - parv -- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
