You're on subject as far as I'm concerned. :-) This is an mh thing, which is probably why you couldn't find your answer in any of the exmh manuals. What you need to do in change the contents of a few files in your Mail directory (in your home directory). I, personally, edited the files replcomps, components and forwcomps so that they had the From field that you see at the top of this message - From: Joel Sutton etc. Have a look through the mh man pages and docs for further info. That's about all there is to it really. I hope this helps. Cheers, Joel...
