If i use: echo "test" \| sendmail -fabc@abc.com -Fdef@def.com me@myself.com the mail simply appears to come from def@def.com and -f flag is simply ignored. What is this -F flag exactly for? -Regards, Akash

For extended sender, the syntax is: sendmail -F "Joe Black <joe.black@death.com>" -------------------- Bye, Harald -- Download XMail Queue Manager 1.46 NOW: XMail Server Tools -- Cross platform remote queue management! -- Message analyzing on the fly! -- Builtin diagnostics knowledge base! -- Manages multiple mail queues!
