[comp.mail.uucp] uucp mail header problems

gbarnet@uswnvg.UUCP (Gary Barnette) (04/27/91)

Problem:

When uucp mail arrives at our site, (using Sequent S81 running Dynix/PTX)
it is mailed to its destination by the user uucp. I think that rmail 
delivers directory (doesn't call sendmail) and adds the appropriate header
info stating that the message is from uucp. Because of this, the reply
function for mailx and elm do not work properly. Does anyone else
have this problem and what did you do to fix it? Does there seem
to be a difference with the way the Sequent PTX handles uucp delivered 
mail? Seems to me it should state the real person in the From: field
and show that it came uucp in the sudo "From ..." line at the top
of the header.


Any info appreciated,

Gary Barnette
