is the problem that you require that the smtp helo domain be different from the envelope sender (the $address in the smtp "mail from $address" line?) is this why you can't set $fd to something that won't be rejected and still have your From: lines properly rewritten? > 'From: "ckeen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' > > line to /mail/box/ckeen/headers but this does not seem to have any > effect.
