Why is that? If mutt is speaking SMTP, then I'd expect it to dot-stuff that line (or whatever the technical term is). If it's just passing the message to an MTA, instead (via stdin or whatever), I'd expect the MTA to do what it takes if *it*, in turn, speaks SMTP to someone else to pass it on. There's hate, all right, but I think you're pointing at the wrong program. Cheers, -- Philip Newton <philip.new...@gmail.com>
