Re: [9fans] pipefrom fun
why not use /mail/lib/names.local for the first example? good point, upon my brief look the answer would be, although I can contrive upon boot to use a different file, in the general case, users can't edit it. i haven't read the script, though. ; ls -l /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/pipefrom --rwx--x--x M 675 maht sys 1107 Aug 20 20:50 /n/sources/contrib/maht/rc/pipefrom I fixed that, oops thanks one thing i've thought would be useful since people mail from many places with many names is a translation from a set of from addresses to a mailbox name so that, e.g. the ned f command doesn't end up creating a bunch of folders for the same person. I'll consider that when I get round to pipeto

I'll stick a sed in the send see how that works out : They're separate issues, which might not have come across in my earlier mail. Rewriting of To: must be done in marshal and is supported by editing /mail/box/$user/names. Rewriting of From: is the reason for pipefrom. Russ
Re: [9fans] pipefrom fun
Rewriting of From: is the reason for pipefrom. in the simple case, From: can be rewritten with /mail/box/$upasname/headers - erik

Re: [9fans] pipefrom fun
pipefrom is too late to rewrite outgoing addresses, because marshal has already written the To: line with the local address.
