FYI, the "from" command doesn't work for me.  Instead I use the
"my_hdr" command like :

# used to make the From: header correct.
my_hdr From: dsh8290@rit.edu (D-Man)

At the moment I don't really need it (because I am sending directly
from that account) but if I send stuff from my Linux box I need it or
else the MTA will make my linux account the "from" (and thus the
default reply-to) address which won't work.

HTH,
