	If you're after what I think you're after, then it's quite easy (unless
you are terrified of /etc/sendmail.cf. 

	Firstly, *back up the file*

	Then open it and find the bit that starts:

#########################
#   Format of headers   #
#########################

	This defines a set of mail headers that sendmail expects/provides. It
is here that the 'recieved' header is defined & formatted for instance.
You only need to tell sendmail to add your custom header by listing it
in here. My extra one looks as follows:

H?l?Delivered-To: $u

	The 'H' means that this is a header line and the '?l?' means only to
add it if it doesn't already exist (It probably means something else,
also but I've forgotten what). The Rest is the header as it will be
inserted with '$u' replaced with the recipient's address.

	You will probably want to add:

H?l?X-POP-3-Rcpt: $u


	Hope that helps!

Dave
