Masquerading will change the ENVELOPE sender (smtp mail from:).   The
received headers will (and must) show that handoff, to make debugging easier.

Nobody filters on received headers like that.  They will, however, filter if
you try sending out mail with an envelope_from of root@localhost

Take a look at http://www.hserus.net/sendmail.html if your sendmail is on a
LAN or a dialup...

LOST #169        -**< Sub : Lesser used commands (split) >**-
For breaking large files to small chunks, there is  already an
utility called "split". see man for usage. It  breaks  a large
file into smaller userdefined chunks with the names xaa,  xab,
xac ... To rejoin them, do: '$cat x* > filename'
