Hi,
 
I'm having a problem.  One of our systems is generating Mail with
multiple "From:" lines in the RFC822 header.  LISTSERV doesn't like
this and gives the following:
 
> Error occured while processing file 6722 from MAILER@UHCCVM: "Command mailfile
> contains invalid RFC822 fields and could not be parsed".

Is there an *easy* way I can change this at the LISTSERV end?  The
system manager for the host that is generating the extra "From:"
line has been trying to fix his end for the past few years without
success.  Apparently, there is some strange interaction between
UREP and SendMail (the host in question is a VAX running Ultrix).
I'm just getting tired of waiting for his end to be fixed, so was
wondering if there was anything I can do at our end.
 
Thanks in advance for any help.
