With either of the following solutions, you'll need to add an
Alternate-Mailboxes entry in your MH profile so that scan prints
"To: recipient" rather than your faked address. For example, if
your real address is wohler@gbr.newt.com and you've added a From
field of:
From: Bill Wohler <bill.wohler@newt.com>
you'll add the following to .mh_profile:
Alternate-Mailboxes: bill.wohler@newt.com
From: Bill Wisner <wisner@netcom.com>

If you're just interested in changing the hostname, add a line to
$MHLIB/mtstailor (mts.conf in nmh):
localname: desired_host_name
