pine/ssmtp



<MTIA>
<perplexed>  why  does pine  put `To:user@host' instead of `My Name'
	     in the `from'  column of my mailbox index 
             when I test post to
             myself (and presumeably other
             recipients on receipt of mail ) 
</perplexed>

<note>     using 2.0.34 on i586 arch. pine 3.96 ssmtp2.27-2  this happens
only for non root users </note>

<query>    is  the  only way to have `from: user@myhost'
           instead of `root@myhost'  appearing achieved
	    by  running pine as non-root user? Is there a config way
round this using 
            sendmail smail or exim as MTA instead
           of ssmtp perhaps?
</query>
