Thanks to the following people who pointed out that the fix is in the
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf file and that I should add the 'E' flag to the
local mailer spec so that it reads like so:
Mlocal, P=/bin/mail, F=flsSDFMmnPE, S=10, R=20, A=mail -d $u
David St. Pierre <david@pacbell.com>
blymn@awadi.com.AU (Brett Lymn)
some of you seemed to think that the E flag is ignored, however, the
above changed worked for me. Others pointed out that there is a
Context-Length and Context-Type header, however, I use emacs's vm
package which doesn't know about these headers.
My original question was:
