Hi!
My setup:
Linux 2.0.34, RH 5.1, tcsh 6.06, qmail 1.03
Problem/Query: (see below for reference)
1. Why is the 'From: ' line not changed when the return-path and from
lines show the changed address?
2. Why are the mysterious quotes added in the address for 'From: '
line? What could be the reason that those quotes are only added around
'48]'? Is there any reason that the backslash be added before [ or ]?
3. Is there anything I can do to avoid the quotes in the address part?
Thanks
Sameer.
