Hmmm. First time I ever heard of this one, and, in fact, first time I've
heard of anyone who cared. I am aware of a similar sendmail-ism, which I
thought was completely unnecessary, and it only confused things. I never
imagined Qmail would do something equally silly.
I feel like starting a religious war on whether mail that's forwarded like
that should retain its original message envelope sender, or have it reset
to the address of the account doing the forwarding.
