How about ofmipd in the mess822 package?

Sounds like that DOS command-line mailer is a POS and a PITA. Why not
find a better one? You could probably even write your in perl pretty
easily using existing network and SMTP modules.

Is there a fixcrio-like utility out there that will correct this
problem?

You could use something like the "fixme" setup described in:

But massage the headers before re-injecting the messages.

I have a DOS command-line mailer that doesn't 
correctly construct mail, it seems. I've used recordio to get exactly 
what's coming from the mailer in the logs and what I see is that the mailer 
doesn't include header information specified on the command line after it gets 
the go ahead to send DATA, although MAIL FROM and RCPT TO are correctly 
specified. The result is anemail without the From or To specified in 
the recipient's mailbox. Moreover, if I don't include a blank line at the 
beginning of the body, there will be no body text, either. (If anybody 
wants to see the output of recordio I can forward it to you, but it's pretty

Is there a fixcrio-likeutility out there that 
will correct this problem? Thanks.
