Oct 19th, 2000, 06:32 PM
Hi.

I know how to send mail through a POP3 server like this:

HELO [Helo Stuff] [vbCrLf]
MAIL FROM: [e-mail address] [vbCrLf]
RCPT TO: [e-mail address] [vbCrLf]
DATA [vbCrLf]
SUBJECT: [the subject come here] [vbCrLf]
[blah blah blah] [vbCrLf]
[yadda yadda yadda] [vbCrLf]
. [vbCrLf]


It works fine, but the problem is that when I retrieve the message using my mail client, it fills the "From" field with the address of the sender.
Is there a way to make it show something like a name? For example:

From: Scorp <steiny@netvision.net.il>
instead of:
From: steiny@netvision.net.il

I tried tons of stuff but nothing worked. :(

Thanks for any help.
