Re: [PATCH] [packages] sendmail.el: try REPLYTO from environment

This is not a problem Emacs can solve; as far as I know, there is no "getMXforLocalHost()" system call. So all MUAs face this difficulty. A DNS lookup would be one alternative here.

I doubt there is one. I've never heard of REPLYTO before, can you tell me where it is standardized? -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Don't ask how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
