Subject: Login name replacement...

I'm asking this question for a friend...Please forgive me!  :-)

Anyway, this friend of mine (login: schilkk) wishes to have pine change 
the loginname in the from line from [email-masked] to 
[email-masked].  He knows how to change the domain to cs.orst.edu, but 
he wished to change the login as well.

We thought, at first, to change the smtp-server variable to a script that 
took STDIN and replaces all instances of schilkk with rat, but apparently 
smtp-server is looking for a machine name, rather than a 
binary...(defaulting to 'sendmail' is what confused us, I guess...)

Anyway, any help on this would be appreciated...

(He wishes to do this since the login [email-masked] is actually a mail 
alias that beames his mail to several locations automagically...)

Later...

Pine does not have a way to do that on Unix.  A future version of 
Pine will have support for the Reply-To header though...

I do not believe that this would be possible in Pine.  What your friend 
is looking for is Sendmail with the IDA enhancement kit.  This version of 
Sendmail will allow him/her to define a translation table that will 
rewrite his address any way he wishes.

When Reply-To: support is added to Pine, it would be very useful if the
feature whereby Pine puts a "+" next to a message in the index, could be
enhanced to recognise the user's Reply-To: variable, and consequently make
the operation of "+" more useful.

We have a variation of this on the enhancement list for a future version 
of pine.  It may even be more general than just using reply-to...
