Well, that did the trick. However, that line shouldn't be necessary.
I still feel that if emacs is using the system MTA, which as you point
out is sendmail, which is actually a link to qmail/bin/sendmail, then
sendmail should do the right things to put in the correct From: and
Return-Path: lines. I haven't customized emacs at all. This
work-around is fine, but I really think I'm missing some part of the
configuration.
Also, there should be some kind of functioning executable in
/bin/mail. I just don't know what to put there on this system.
Maybe I should have gotten Correl Linux, which comes with qmail
instead of rotten old sendmail.
