- I'm using MX V3.1C, VMS 5.5-1 and i have set a personal name in
- VMS-mail. When i send a message out it appears as
-
- From: "Franz Schoenbauer,Computer Science,Vienna,Austria, +43-1-58801-4126"
- <system@EIMONI.TUWIEN.AC.AT>
-
- at the unix box. Is this a valid from line ?
- I've had trouble suscribing to mailing lists and it turned out
- people couldn't use my from line, and were expecting something
- like
-
- From: franzi (Franz Schoenbauer)
-
- which is the from line i see when i receive mail from the unix
- box on VMS via MX.
-
- Is there anything i can do to change the format of the from line ?
- (except dropping the personal name ...)
-
- Thanks,
-
