Struggling to get linux set up at home.  Want to be able to use the Pine
bounce feature to direct non-subscribed messages to LISTSERV, but LISTSERV
is not seeing my correct address.  I'm getting mail by my ISP's POP with
fetchmail, sending to the ISP's SMTP server. My linux box insisted on
marking my mail as [log in to unmask], even when mail was sent from an
account named after my correct e-mail user address, "holloway".  After far
too long a time, I've figured out that I could add a feature to the .pinerc
that would add whatever From header I wanted.  The headers of my messages
now have the correct address, [log in to unmask], but LISTSERV is still
seeing [log in to unmask] when I try to bounce a message.  It must be using
something I can't read in the envelope.  This seems to leave me with the
task of hacking sendmail to let me masquerade, but will this send LISTSERV
the address I want?  Alternatively, I suppose, I could just add
[log in to unmask] as an owner, but this strikes me as inelegant.  Can
anyone offer advice?

Thanks,
Mike Holloway
