Currently, when my work mailer forwards one message to someone else, it is enveloped in a mail heading which says that the message was forwarde by me to the individual. But I am seeing recently messages from folks who claim that their mailer is rfc822 (?) compatible which does the following: Article 4143 of comp.sys.apple: Path: n8emr!osu-cis!tut.cis.ohio-state.edu!husc6!think!ames!pasteur!ucbvax!SHARK.NOSC.MIL!MEDIN-T From: MEDIN-T@SHARK.NOSC.MIL (Ted Medin) Newsgroups: comp.sys.apple Subject: Re: 2nd try Message-ID:Date: 5 May 88 23:03:58 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Organization: The Internet Lines: 4 I forgot whoever asked for this but here's a response I got from Ted Medin. --chris ----------------------------Original message---------------------------- The latest version of blu works on all 2's. ============================ Note that the above message was forwarded (reference to a chris and a line stating Original message) yet there is nothing in the header as it arrived here that indicates WHO originally mailed this message. This has been happening to me now for about 1-2 weeks. I know of at least one site that specifically is running this mailing pgm. They claim that their mail is fine - in fact, when messages end up on their mailing list (info- apple?) it has a Resent-By: header line. But somewhere in the translation to uucp/usenet it loses this line. This also happens when private mail crosses from the site into usenet/uucp land. Any ideas on whether there is a rogue site or if perhaps the originating sites have a problem? Thanks! -- Larry W.
