Basically the same way as now: It passes the envelope sender to sendmail with '-f' on the command line. If `message-sendmail-envelope-from' is nil (the default), nothing should have changed -- it'll use `message-make-address' in the envelope. > It seems like this only started recently. I don't see how `message-sendmail-envelope-from' could make anything different with the default setting. But you could try this patch and see if it changes anything: --=-=-= Content-Type: text/x-patch Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=message.el.diff --- gnus/lisp/message.el Sat Mar 1 15:28:48 2003 +++ message.el Sun Mar 2 17:28:12 2003 @@ -3559,7 +3559,7 @@ ;; But some systems are more broken with -f, so ;; we'll let users override this.
