I dont know what mail server the local server is running, but there is an option in sendmail to override any attempts at address changes, I believe it is the masquerade option. this gave me some trouble in pine for awhile..somehow that option got set by another admin or an alien from a far awy planet and it was automatically changing my specified header back to the hostname of the system. there are probably similar options on other servers(other then sendmail) that do this too. sorry i dont know enough about perl or how to manually modify mail headers to check your code if that is the problem :) nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Vice President Network Operations http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- 9:54pm up 102 days, 9:34, 1 user, load average: 1.91, 1.59, 1.54
