> Why should a mail reader be able to modified it ? Because if, in the future, some mail reader does start modifying it, someone won't start complaining about the documentation not saying a mail reader can modify it. (This is a possible, if unlikely situation - consider a web based mail system for all users of the system, with the administrator being able to set the visible system name. The actual system would call a smarthost for all outgoing email, and wouldn't itself be an MTA, but it would definitely be a mail reader, and one that might want to modify the /etc/mailname file). -- - Joe Wreschnig <piman@sacredchao.net> - http://www.sacredchao.net "What I did was justified because I had a policy of my own... It's okay to be different, to not conform to society." -- Chen Kenichi, Iron Chef Chinese
