It's not. sendmail is installed but as soon as my Mandrake 7.1
powerpack gets here I'm going to install qmail on here instead of
sendmail (too lazy to do it now just to change it again). But I
don't want to "hardcode" it either, because I use different email
addresses for different things. Someone mentioned an envelope header
string that can be defined but I think I lost that message... I've
upgraded to 1.2i now and it works good (except for the color), so now
I can try those envelope headers...
Can someone re-post that info? I seem to have lost that message...
