sorry, i'll try to be more explicit.  what i meant by the 'how are you
startinh qmail-smtpd' comment was, are you binding tcpserver to a specific
interface?
 
as for envs, AFAIK, you never need to set anything via tcpserver to get
the by line in Received: to show up properly.

also, when i try the same test you did, here's what i get:

Received: from localhost (HELO ) (127.0.0.1)
  by localhost with SMTP; 11 Jul 2001 02:53:30 -0000

as opposed to telnet mx1.hq.ny.otec.net:

Received: from mx1.hq.ny.otec.net (HELO ) (209.3.117.8)
  by mx1.hq.ny.otec.net with SMTP; 11 Jul 2001 02:54:49 -0000

granted, i don't get "by 0 with SMTP", but this may have more to do
with your OS than qmail. 

additionally, i looked at the source:  i could be wrong (someone please
correct me if i am), but i think that the Received: line is added by
qmail-queue, not qmail-smtpd.
