Subject: Make a REPLY-TO Field?

Hey all...

I use pop mail.  Since I dial in to retrieve my mail, as much as I 
would love to send mail through pine, I can't because I cannot set my 
return address.  My return address is simply a bogus root@ or user@ 
my machine name.  If there is a way to set a REPLY or REPLY-TO field 
in the header of my outgoing emails through the use of PINE (without 
editing Sendmail.cf) this would be appreciated.  Thanks! :)

Please email me back as I do not have the fortune of reading 
newsgroups everyday :)

You can add the "Reply-To" (and any other) custom header by:

1.  Start Pine.
2.  At the Main Menu go to the Setup Configuration screen by typing "S"
    then "C".
3.  Move the highlight down to the "customized-hdrs" item.
4.  Read its help by typing "?"
5.  Exit the help screen and follow its instructions.  :-)

Cheers,

Mike,
Is there any settings and in which file woud it be stored to compensate 
for From: being written later in the header, than it would normally apear?
I have a problem with a SMTP gateway that it adds some internal X-Status 
junk before the From: header and Pine can't read it so it cannot not find 
the return address for a reply. But the interesting thing is that elm 
works fine.
Any idea's?
Thanks,

Your best bet is to send a sample problem message (complete with headers)
to the Pine Team for comment... I was under the impression that Pine
scanned ALL the headers of a message, and could find entries no matter
which order they appear in.

Make sure you don't have any blank lines within the list of headers (as
this signifies "end of headers, start of body text".

Cheers,
