So what's your point? Ok, the above was flame bait. This is a list, and one of the disadvantages of a list, if it's indeed a disadvantage, is that the conversations can get out of the control of the person who started a thread. That's similar to face to face conversations with more than 2 people. The person who asked the question can probably get the conversation back on track all on his own w/o your help.
Anyway, my answer to his question, which I tried to say as nicely as possible, is that you probably can't get an internet MTA to do what he wants w/o going into the source. Further, I can think of no good reason to try what he's doing given the work that would be involved. But hey, there are lists that specialize in particular MTA's. Sendmail has one, and so does qmail. Though I'll warn you about the qmail list. The people who dominate that list (who answer the questions) like to sneer a lot at people they consider fools. But of course there's the saying that sticks and stones.... === Al --- Kevin Myers <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Sat, 7 Sep 2002 06:47:49 -0700 (PDT), Al wrote: > > >Well, qmail and sendmail, as do most mail transport agents (MTA) have > >one thing in common.
