I'd like Messages (actually sendmessage) to automatically insert a From: header in all messages I send, so that replies and mail in general will go to my main mailing address, rather than to whereever I happen to be sending mail from at that time. What do I set where to make that happen? (I'm still running Andrew R5).

I'm also interested in Bill's question for the reasons he gave but for R6. I think the appropriate way to do this is to use the Reply-To: header and set it automatically but show it in the upper window of the two mail sending apps (messages and sendmessage). I hope that it's possible to find a solution that doesn't require keystrokes -- I forget too often.

Fred Hansen ___________________ FACTS ON FILE ___________________ What is Andrew? Software Components Andrew-Ready Platforms Remote Andrew Demo Service The Source Code and Binary Distributions Become a Member of the Andrew Consortium Services and Offerings from the Consortium "Andrew in Print" "Andrew on Tape" Contact Information Andrew Is... Compound Document Architecture...Word Processor...Drawing Editor...Mail /Bulletin Board Reader, Writer, Manager...Spreadsheet / Table Editor...Widget Set...Application Builder...Scriptable...In C and C++...For X11 ...With a consistent, integrated user interface so you can create compound documents containing pictures, words, tables, graphs ... and more. The Andrew User Interface System is an integrated set of tools that allow you to create, use, and mail documents and applications containing typographically formatted text and embedded objects. AUIS or "Andrew" has three principal components: The Andrew User Environment (AUE) is an integrated set of applications beginning with a 'generic object' editor (ez), a help system, a system monitoring tool (console), an editor-based shell interface (typescript), and support for printing multi-media documents. \ The Andrew Toolkit (ATK) is a portable user-interface toolkit. \ It provides a dynamically-loadable, object-oriented environment wherein objects can be embedded in one-another. Thus, one could edit text that contains not only fonts and styles, but also embedded raster images, spreadsheets, drawing editors, equations, simple animations, etc. These embedded objects could themselves contain other objects, including text. ATK is an open system so programmers can create new objects that can be embedded as easily as those system-defined objects. \ The Andrew Message System (AMS) provides a multi-media interface to mail and bulletin-boards. AMS supports several mail management strategies and implements many advanced features including authentication, return receipts, automatic sorting of mail, vote collection and tabulation, enclosures, audit trails of related messages, and subscription management. It also provides a variety of interfaces that support ttys and low-function personal computers in addition to the high-function workstations. ______________________________ Components of the Andrew System The following components are available in Andrew 6.3 and later versions. Some respond to frequently requested applications in X, such as: \ word processor --> ez drawing editor --> figure mail and news reader --> messages font editor --> bdffont documentation browser --> help directory browser --> bush Andrew applications (graphic and interactive) bush - directory browser chump - schedule maintainer console - shell interface / terminal replacement ez - word processor and program editor bdffont - font editor (for fonts in bdf format) help - documentation browser (includes all AUIS help files) launch - provides a menu of AUIS applications messages - mail and news reader, manager, and composer pipescript - viewer useful as stdout prefed - preferences editor sendmessage - application for sending a message or news posting typescript - shell interface (terminal substitute) Graphical, interactive editors that are both applications and insets eq - equation inset fad - animation editor figure - drawing editor layout - inset for arbitrary layout of enclosed insets lset - display two adjacent insets ness - extension and string processing language org - display and edit hierarchies page - allow flipping between pages raster - editor for monochrome bitmapped images table - table / spreadsheet inset text - text, document, and program editor (the heart of ez and other applications) Commonly used non-interactive Andrew applications datacat - concatenate ATK files ezprint - print an ATK document nessrun - runs a Ness script (the extension and string processing language) preview - preview an ATK document on screen File format converters from ATK to: RTF, ASCII, PostScript, troff to ATK from: ppm, Scribe, RTF, troff, X window dump convertraster - various raster formats Embeddable insets not usually used as applications clock - analog clock eq - equations header - specify document headers and footers image - display images from many formats: jpeg, gif, tiff, ... link - hypertext-like link month - display calendar for a month note - annotation text - the text object itself timeoday - digital clock writestamp - time file was written Editing tools compchar - keyboard input of characters for European languages compile - support compilation and error review complete - filename completion for typescript dired - directory browser dsearch - dynamic search ezdiff - compare two ASCII files filter - process a region of a document through a shell command isearch - incremental search lookz - style table editor spell - spelling correction (uses ispell) Source text editing tools assembler, C++, C, Lisp, man pages, Modula, Modula-3, Pascal Tools for constructing insets and applications arb - ADEW application builder interface bison - GNU parser generator (enhanced) class - preprocessor for ATK object system header files createcon - ADEW tool to generate C code for interface createinset - create a prototypical inset under a new name doindex - classC postprocessor genmake - Makefile generator for classC genstatl - generate statically loadable application gentlex - lexical analyzer generator makedo - classC post processor to create objects runadew - runtime for ADEW application builder sym - symbol table object whichdo - find an inset on the CLASSPATH Additional insets available for building applications button, display text string, entry of labeled text string, four position switch, multiple buttons, multiple sliders, multiple string entry, on/off switch, slider, slider controlling array of strings, text list, thumb knob _______________________ Andrew-Ready Platforms Andrew has been used successfully on (at least) these platforms: \ IBM---RT AOS 3.4, RT AIX 2.2.1, RS/6000 AIX3.1, PS/2 AIX1.2 \ SUN---Sun3 3.5, Sun3 4.0, Sun4 4.0, Sun3 4.1, Sun4 4.1, Sun4Mach, Solaris DEC---Vax Ultrix 3.1, Vax Ultrix 4.2, Vax BSD, DEC MIPS, Pmax Mach Other---HP, SCO I386, SGI IRIX 4.0, Apollo, Macintosh II, MacMach, 486 Mach, Telmat, Linux ___________________ Remote Demo Service Try out Andrew from your own work station via the Remote Andrew Demo Service. You will need a host machine on the Internet running the X11 window system. You will be able to compose multimedia documents, navigate through the interactive Andrew Tour, and use the Andrew Message System to browse through a few of CMU's four thousand bulletin boards and newsgroups. To get started, simply run the following command on your machine: finger @atk.cs.cmu.edu (128.2.203.218). The remote demo system will give you further instructions. _____________________________________________ Accessing the Source Code and Binary Distributions Sources and binaries are available online via anonymous ftp from: ftp.andrew.cmu.edu (IP: 128.2.232.154) in pub/AUIS/.
