Re: MH programs of Mailutils
Program File: "send.c"

Problem:   call to  mu_get_user_email(....)
           calls  mu_get_user_email_domain(...)
           calls  mu_get_hostname(...)

And this gives me a "domain" string that is going to be used in my "From:" address. This address can not be replied to be people who receive this address.

It it a bug that send.c is not checking the mtstailor file for
the  "localname"  definition?

A configuration file should be able to over-ride this.

Concrete example:
   I am given the domain as:  henman-np.b-eng.it.to-be.co.jp
   I need it to be -->                        it.to-be.co.jp

So that people can reply to my mail.

Shouldn't send.c be referring to "mtstailor".
Specifically the at the item:

"localname: Specifies the host name of the local system. If this entry is not defined, MH queries the system for the default value."

Any information about this sincerely appreciated.
