Mail/mailx often send reply to wrong user or show wrong sender.



Mail/mailx use UUCP from line to determine sender, it should use
the From: header only. To achieve this you can use the undocumented
"from" mail variable in your .mailrc: "set from".


To make this the default behavior, add "set from" to
/etc/mail/mailx.rc.
