If I do "cat test | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject" and test is:

From: Joel Uckelman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I get back: "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" instead. I've also tried sending this 
to a friend, with the same results. Is there any way I can force qmail to send 
out a specified From: header?
