Mutt allows one to specify any headers you like, even being able to tailor them to the recipient. One could also contruct your own headers, and feed it through sendmail: cat << DONE From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: anything you like Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] There is a blank line separating this message body from the headers above. Bill DONE || /usr/lib/sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Substitute the appropriate path for sendmail if necessary.
