I've modified my rmail command long ago to use `interactive' delivery (-odi), and in one case where rmail bothered me too much by insisting on the $%&@ useless From_ line, i even replaced it by a script calling sendmail -odi without any additional preprocessing. All this went very fine, so what's the point that our rmail uses the conservative approach (-odq) only? -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
