I believe this difference has to do with the value of mail-user-address. What are the values you see in Emacs vs XEmacs? Does customizing that variable help in the current session? It is probable that customization of that variable does _not_ persist from session to session in XEmacs 21.4 earlier than 21.4.6 (or maybe maybe even 21.4.7) due a bug in the customization code corrected in that version. christian> * Supplying Return-Path: as a header in the message christian> does not help; sendmail overrides it. That's right. That's what the MTA is supposed to do AFAIK. Return-Path is supposed to be the same as the envelope sender. (But see the relevant RFC, 2822 I think, if you want to be sure.) So you need to invoke with sendmail -f. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN My nostalgia for Icon makes me forget about any of the bad things.
