I would think that the procmail binary might not be available

that was the problem, but it was a little odd.

My email address is 'luomat(_at_)nerc(_dot_)com' which actually gets delivered  
to 'luomat(_at_)nerc1(_dot_)nerc(_dot_)com'.  There's another machine called 
'nerc3'  
which I can also log into and send mail from.

I didn't think the problem was no procmail because 'procmail' and  
'formail' is installed on nerc1   -- however! when I send mail from  
'nerc3' it seems my 'from' changes to:

luomat(_at_)nerc3(_dot_)nerc(_dot_)com

and when people replied to that, it went did not find 'procmail'  
and seemed to wait to try again:

"|IFS=' '&&p=/usr/local/bin/procmail&&test -f $p&&exec $p  
-Yf-||exit 75 #luomat"

was my .forward....

Anyway, thanks for the help
