This actually was just discussed -- was it here or on LSTSRV-L? Can't remember. Anyway, the way to do it is to have *your* mail program send the messages to LISTSERV as a "bounce" rather than as a "forward". (If you use Elm or the current version of Pine, "bounce" is the command you'll see, which is why I put it in quotes.) The difference is that when you bounce a message, its headers still indicate to LISTSERV that the message is "From:" the original sender, that the "Date:" is the date the original sender sent it, etc. All the information about you, and when you sent it, etc., is indicated in a similar set of headers starting with "Resent-", i.e. "Resent-From:", "Resent-Date:", and so on. So, talk to your systems people and see if your mail program can do this, and then you'll be all set. Norm
