Hi Andy,
On 13 December 2001 at 16:20:58 [GMT-0500] (which was 21:20 where I
live) Andy Spiegl wrote to TBUDL and made these points:

RFC822 says:
4.5. RECEIVER FIELDS
4.5.1. TO / RESENT-TO
This field contains the identity of the primary recipients of
the message.
It says nothing about mutual exclusivity, which means that if both are
present then the "To:" field would be used for routing in addition to
the Resent-To:. Thing is, there's the headers and then there's the
SMTP envelope, which is what specifies the *true* recipient. Using TB,
we don't get control over that - it's just taken from the "To:" field
or even just left to the SMTP server to siphon out of the various
destination address fields and place in the RCPT TO: envelope header.
Mutt clearly provides better control of such things (as does most
software from the *nix world).

... from a client that allows you to do such a thing. No, TB doesn't
support this.

AS> But it changes ALL the header lines. :-((
Well, the To: and the Date: ... nothing else that I can see. Option 2
works good.
