Re: [gentoo-user] mutt question
It is a feature. Mutt gives you the option of saving local copy of mail when you send. If all the mail in your sent mail folder displays as From: David H. Askew, you'll never be able to tell which is which (= I've never actually tried to set that behaviour differently, try looking at the mutt manual http://www.mutt.org/doc/manual/ AFAIK, everything that is configurable is included in there.

Re: [gentoo-user] mutt question
i'm actually using nbsmtp, but I don't think its actually a header problem, but rather a mutt display problem ... thanks for the suggestion anyway -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
