Please don't flame too hard if this is a RTFM, I have, and I did not see anything on it. The mail system on teh apollo's (sendmail mailx) is putting a blank line in the header when it processes mail. We are running OS 10.2, sys5.3. This causes the subject not to be found, and also creates problems with reading an acurate "from" on mail from an outside system. Is there a switch to prevent this, should I get a different mail system, or what? Following is an example of the "corrupted" header. Notice the blank lines after the Status: and Apparently-To: lines. Speaking of "Apparently-To:" what's the scoop with it. If this is a RTFM, please refer me to what section(s). Thanks in advance, John Raffensperger, Jr. Milwaukee Cylinder (800) 334-4712 (voice) uunet!marque!dhump!mkecyl!johnr Sample Mail header with blank lines inserted: > >From johnr Fri Aug 31 23:08 CDT 1990 >Status: RO > Received: by mkecyl.UUCP; Fri, 31 Aug 90 23:08:25 CDT > Date: Fri, 31 Aug 90 23:08:25 CDT > From: johnr (John W.
