+instance, \*(lqDan.Harkless\*(rq to \*(lqdan\*(rq.
+.PP
+The second way to override default construction of \*(lqFrom:\*(rq is to set the
+.B $SIGNATURE
+environment variable. This variable overrides the full name
+from the GECOS field, even if GECOS\-based masquerading is being done. This
+processing is always active, and does not need to be enabled from
+.IR mts.conf .
+.PP
+The third way is controlled by the \*(lquser_extension\*(rq value of \*(lqmasquerade:\*(rq line
+of
+.IR mts.conf .
+When that's turned on, setting the
+.B $USERNAME_EXTENSION
+environment variable will result in its value being appended the user's login
+name. For instance, if I set
+.B $USERNAME_EXTENSION
+to \*(lq+www\*(rq, my \*(lqFrom:\*(rq
+line will contain \*(lqDan Harkless <dan+www@machine.company.com>\*(rq (or
+\*(lqDan.Harkless+www\*(rq if I'm using mmailid masquerading as well). Recent versions
+of
+.B sendmail
+automatically deliver all mail sent to
+.IR user + string
+to
+.IR user .
+.B qmail
+has a similar feature which uses '\-' as the delimiter by
+default, but can use other characters as well.
+.PP
+The fourth method of address masquerading is to specify a \*(lqFrom:\*(rq line manually
+in the message draft. It will be used as provided (after alias substitution),
+but normally, to discourage email forgery, the user's
+.B real
+address will be
+used in the SMTP envelope \*(lqFrom:\*(rq and in a \*(lqSender:\*(rq header. However, if the
+\*(lqmasquerade:\*(rq line of
+.I mts.conf
+contains \*(lqdraft_from\*(rq, the SMTP envelope \*(lqFrom:\*(rq
+will use the address given in the draft \*(lqFrom:\*(rq, and there will be no \*(lqSender:\*(rq
+header. This is useful in pretending to send mail \*(lqdirectly\*(rq from a remote POP3
+account, or when remote email robots give improper precedence to the envelope
+\*(lqFrom:\*(rq. Note that your MTA may still reveal your real identity (e.g.
+.BR sendmail 's
+\*(lqX\-Authentication\-Warning:\*(rq header).
+.PP
+If nmh is using the SMTP MTA, the
+.B \-server
+and the
+.B \-port
+switches can be used to override the default mail server (defined by the
+.RI servers
+entry in
+.I %etcdir%/mts.conf
+).
