[comp.mail.sendmail] Double hostnames

tcheng@silver.ucs.indiana.edu (Tony C. Cheng) (08/18/90)

We have same problem on our two System V boxes.  Each time a mail from
remote host will be first parsed by /bin/mail and then by /usr/lib/sendmail.
Therefore, when we open the mail by using /bin/mail, we see only one mail, 
but that same mail will appear as two mails if we opened it with 'mailx'.
Then the first mail in mailx's directory is the one with /bin/mail parsed
header, but withouth mail content; the second mail is the one parsed
by sendmail.

If anyone knows exactly what went wrong on our sendmail.cf or other
setups, please also give us a help.  It will be highly appreciated.

The problem that I had originally was solved.  I am doing some site hiding
for discless workstations, and forgot to change one of my macros.  Maybe
this will help.
