You are right, Mrinal. This does not cause any problem however.
There will also be a field
Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or X-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED])
Typically that will be [EMAIL PROTECTED]
([EMAIL PROTECTED], say)
Suresh Ramasubramanian [EMAIL PROTECTED]

LIH is all for free speech. But it was created for a purpose - to help
people discuss issues about installing and running Linux. If your
messages are counterproductive to this purpose, your privileges to
submit messages can and will be revoked.
