Thanks for the reply, Dan. I've set the Return-Path with sendmail flags,
and that works fine. It's the Received: line, that I'm having trouble with.
I've always used sendmail in my CGI scripts, so I don't have a clue 
about how to use procmail. Btw... the script is an auction program, 
not a form mailer. Thanks again...
