Hi... My suggestions are: - do not use email services like gmail or any other similar stuff... much better to choose a privacy-focused service etc. -- either for free (i.e. tutanota) or also paying (i.e. runbox) - use a good and standardized POP/SMTP/IMAP mail client (avoiding web clients when possibile), which should let you heve full control of email headers... i would strongly suggest claws-mail which has a lot of god features (inclunding customization on headers) Regards al3xu5 -- Say NO to copyright, patents, trademarks and industrial design restrictions!

You only need to send enough information for the receiving end to accept your message process. Sorry, but late at night here and too many decades so I do not remember the process clearly, but I think it is just a)_sender identification b) message recipient c) message body In Unix and early linux the commanmd was 'mail' but it seems to have grown a bit since them. "man mail" if you want to go down the rabbit hole. ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
