RFC822 doesn't say anything about whether original headers should be retained or not when resending. It only discusses adding more information using the Resent-* mechanism. > The "X-From-Line:" should only be in the resent e-mail if it was in > the original e-mail as well. The X-From-Line is the sendmail envelope "From " header. It makes as much sense to retain this header as the Received headers, which weren't in the original message either, but were also added by the transport mechanism. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) larsi@gnus.org * Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen
