You could look in the sendmail queue to compare the values for a message from pine and a message from RMAIL. (For each message, sendmail has a df file and a qf file, I believe, and one of them contains the message body and the other contains the metadata, including sender and recipient info. The latter is in the R lines, but I forgot about the former.) kai -- ~/.signature is: umop ap!sdn (Frank Nobis)
