| The mail envelope is the following:
First, allow me to correct your terminology:
That is not the envelope. That is the header.
The distinction is important.

| However, it is ugly to see a lot of delivered to lines with the real
| user address [EMAIL PROTECTED], and even
| [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the envelope.
I don't think ugliness is a suitable criterion for deciding what to do
here. Those lines are an important part of qmail's loop detection and
avoidance algorithm. Mess with them at your own risk.
| How can I set up the system, so that qmail does not put these lines
| in the envelope, or only one of it, and that containing the virtual
| domain address [EMAIL PROTECTED]?
If you absolutely must, have the mail go through a filter at some
point in the delivery chain to edit and/or remove the offending header
fields. But please, don't do it unless you know what you're doing.
And don't do it even if you do.
