I just tested with sendmail, this header is there also when using sendmail. Isn't the Sender: header added by Mutt somehow, when From: and the local username differ? No time to look at the source...

What does this leave? Mailing list software? Yes. Many do so to help identify messages being sent by some daemon. :Could this possibly be added by my ISP's smtp server?

If you want to remove it, you could find the appropriate lines in the source code that adds it and modify the code accordingly. Or you could just leave it in as a way to advertise and advocate the use of mutt. :-) That's primarily why I haven't taken it out. -- -- | Christopher Uy | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.chivalry.net | -- "Every successful person has had failures but repeated failure is no guarantee of eventual success."
