Hi,

>As I have mentioned before and Steven has disagreed the -t switch does
>not have parameters.

What I said is the parameter is optional. It works for me either way.

>You use the -t switch to instruct sendmail to get
>the To: and From: from the email headers.

Not the From:, according to the docs. The bare -t causes the To:, Cc: and
Bcc: headers to be pulled from the message.

>You can use the -f to override
>the From:

You must use the -f unless your system configuration allows sendmail to
grab the right values from the environment. In my case omitting the -f
cause sendmail to set the envelope sender to steven@localhost.

>sendmail -a file-name -f from-address -t (supply the from and get
>the to from the email headers)
>or
>sendmail -a file-name -t (get the from and to from the email headers)

These all work, as do a number of other variations. The command line
parser is picky about spaces, but I suspect that v8.x is much less picky.
