more on the mail problem I reported...

daemon@ATHENA.MIT.EDU (Derek Atkins)
Thu Jul 30 17:20:57 1998

To: bugs@MIT.EDU
From: Derek Atkins <warlord@MIT.EDU>
Date: 30 Jul 1998 17:20:53 -0400

I finally got root access and was able to read the message in the mail
spool file.  It is a vacation response to some mail I sent earlier
from the machine (sidney.mit.edu).  The response is it
"warlord@sidney.mit.edu".  I suspect that the default sendmail.cf is
sending an envelope from address of the localhost rather than an
envelope from address of @mit.edu.

Unfortunately I'm not conversant enough in sendmail.cf to actually
track this one down (sorry).
