Re: [Postfixadmin-devel] Using the 'Real Name' in the autoreply message

[Tanstaafl <tan...@li...>]

Sorry, I should have included his earlier responses in that email...

The problem is I have no clue how to look for it to see if it is there, 
or be able to tell what version it is in. I know for sure it isn't in 
2.3.4 (what I'm on now). If it is in 2.3.6, that would be all the reason 
I'd need to upgrade this weekend.

I haven't really worried about running a slightly older version because 
mine is only accessible from my workstation IP on a local network.

Thanks Rudi...
