Wow, people actually _use_ disposition notifications? I'm shocked; haven't seen one of those in forever. So, to answer your question - there's no functionality in send (or post, which really is the backend program to send) to call mh-format(5). And I don't really see that happening either; the thinking from the nmh camp is that you're supposed to be giving send a valid draft, and a valid draft includes a From: header (send does do a limited amount of processing on a draft but I think mh-format support is way out of scope for it). So I think this has to be fixed from the exmh side. I see a couple of options - it could simply put a From: header in that draft. What from header should it use? Good question - that could be configurable, or it could extract it from nmh, via something like this: /usr/local/nmh/lib/ap -format '%(localmbox)' ignore (That would only work for nmh 1.5 or later). Or it could use comp to build up a valid draft and then process it. --Ken _______________________________________________ Nmh-workers mailing list Nmh-workers@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
