- Hi everybody,
-
- I have a problem in auto-forwarding mail.
- Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.
-
- The "Subject" header is not shown for any mail which is Auto -
- Forwarded to me from another system. Basically "Subject" becomes a part
- of the content, and I get a blank Subject, for that message, when I see
- my mail using elm or mailx.
-
- I have two systems "yesac" and "wan486".
- I am using "mail -F satish@wan486" for forwarding the mail, from system
- "yesac".
- I want all the mail sent to satish@yesac to be auto forwarded to
- satish@wan486. In "yesac", file /usr/mail/satish contains
- "Forward to satish@wan486". This works fine but the forwarded message
- does not show the Subject.
-
- The following example will elaborate the problem. This is a copy of
- mail which was auto forwarded to me from "yesac".
- Lines with "...(..).." are my comments. " = " has been put in beginning
- of every line to indicate the actual message received.

- Please send reply to "satish@wan486.ColumbiaSC.NCR.COM", and not to
- satish@yesac.ColumbiaSC.NCR.COM, otherwise I would not see the Subject.
-
- NOTE : Subject for a mail sent from yesac system to satish@yesac is displayed.
-
- Please suggest any solution or method to circumvent this problem.
-
- Thanks in advance, waiting for your reply..........
