[comp.mail.misc] Is it possible for me to change my return path?

vpopesc%neptune@calstatela.edu (Valentin Popescu) (03/24/91)

Hello, I have a question with which I hope someone can help. Here's my
problem:

when I send a letter from this machine, it goes out as 
vpopesc%neptune@calstatela.edu.  However, if someone tries to
reply to my letter, it bounces. If they try to send mail
to vpopesc@neptune.calstatela.edu, it works fine. 

I sent mail to the system administrator, but no fix as of yet.

Now my question is: is it possible for me to get sendmail to 
add vpopesc@neptune.calstatela.edu as the return path, instead
of vpopesc%neptune..etc ?  Keep in mind that I have no root
privileges, nor can I modify the sendmail.cf file. 

This is a Sun4/380, 4.1, and my mailer is mush 7.2.1 (I have my own
binary and can modify it and recompile it).

Oh yah, should I add that you shouldn't reply to this letter
as is, but rather 'mail vpopesc@neptune.calstatela.edu' ? :) Unless
of course, you want to see a bounced letter..

Thanks in advance for any help.
