what i meant by "weird" was that the people using the site are not necessarily technically competant, and i think some of them will be confused seeing an email that they never knew existed.
i wish i could alter the source, but my host doesn't give me that much control (at least for 10 bucks a month :P).
oh well, thanks anyways darby

yes, i am... reason is that i have a php form that they fill out to subscribe, and i dunno, i just think it would be weird for them to see the email that the server sent on their behalf.
I disaree that it would be "weird," although it won't be helpful tracking down forgers unless you add a header field to the mail PHP is sending out containing GETENV("HTTP_HOST") - do that, and you're done.
Of course, if you want to rewrite SmartList, you're welcomed to do so - that's what open-source is all about. Start tracking the path of a message through rc.request, and you'll quickly find the rewrites you need to make.
