Then my OS (Ubuntu 10.04) will work. B-) I've avoided building
my own installs because I got tired of maintaining dependencies,
the main advantage (for me) of using Ubuntu. (It used to be so
easy: install GNU, then install X, then install a couple of
"etc." software like MH and emacs. B-)
I know what you mean. I think in terms of external dependencies we
aren't so bad (although if you want to submit email to gmail, you'll need
cyrus-sasl and openssl, but those are becoming more and more standard
nowadays).
Funny -- I was thinking of downloading the NMH source and hacking
it to stop it doing that, and then I read on some webpage that it
was sendmail that did that. (Bad information!)
Just curious ... where did you read that? AFAIK sendmail won't add a
Sender header, but I could be wrong ... definitely in your case nmh
was doing it, as you've discovered.
I wasn't aware I was using spost. (Actually I wasn't aware of
the existence of an NMH package program called "spost" before.)
Well, if you don't have a postproc in your .mh_profile, then I guess
you're using the sendmail MTS. You can look in mts.conf for that.
We've cleaned that up, but that's probably post-1.5 (but it shouldn't
be needed for this problem).
Not having to use sendmail has appeal, although I would still
need it for the incoming email that I fetch from GMail. Though
I suspect that there's a way to do that as well without needing
sendmail. (Ah, never needing sendmail again! B-)
You could probably do that with "inc", the nmh tool designed for that :-).
Might need some finessing with the current limitations on inc, though.
But it should be doable.
