The header is `Return-Receipt-To:', and its use is deprecated, having
been superceded by proper DSNs (Delivery Status Notifications).
There's an RFC or ID out about it, and the latest sendmail betas
(8.8Alpha5, I believe) use DSNs instead of R-R-T:.
This discussion would be better off in comp.mail.sendmail or some
such, since it is in no way directly related to Linux networking.
