Hi-

I recently changed jobs (and have been without my exmh-workers/users
feed, so forgive me if this has been covered).  I installed nmh 0.17 and
used it in conjunction with exmh (up through 2.0 delta) at my last job,
with no problems.  At my new job, I went ahead and installed 2.0 zeta,
and it mostly works, but has one quirk.

When I get mail from, say, user_a & go to reply to it, user_a shows up
as "user_a@aursgh" (my machine name).  If I do a "repl" from the command
line, user_a shows up (properly) as just "user_a".  Why the difference?
Doesn't exmh use (n)mh to format the stuff that goes into the sedit
buffer?

I could live with permanently tacking on "@aur.alcatel.com" if I had to
(but would prefer not to), but simply tacking on my host name is too
ugly for me. :-)

Any clues?

I'm running:

	SunOS aursgh 5.5.1 Generic_103640-09 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-2

with (again) nmh 0.17 and exmh-2.0zeta.

Thanks!
John
