I've modified pine so that it tends to report a SMTP MAIL FROM
of <username@domainname>. So, in most cases, bounces should make
their way back to the user who sent the mail.
People who use pine on Ultrix, or who configure themselves to
send mail using sendmail -t, or perhaps other odd cases,
will still wind up with enveolope FROMs which are based
on the From: header of the body of their message, and so will
lose if their From: address is not in the mit domain.
