Re: puzzled by echo behaviour...

OK, you were correct there was a space.

I have a question.

I want access to the entire header block from the rule pipe that's building
the body of message... How I get the header block. I want to include
the headers in the body.. I'll probably need to quote them too.

This rule is designed to catch people who mail a bogus user at my site.

There doesn't appear to be a way to get a To: header because I don't think
sendmail passes it through. But as I said. I want access to the header lines
from within the rule that's building the body. 

I don't want to use formail to extract them because there can be multiple
_arbitary_ header lines.
