Hi,
  I want to achieve sender's name masquerading with the following situation :

  - I have a shell account on an ISP with say email address myname@remote.host
  - I have an account on a workstation on the local net with email address
    myname@myworkstation.localdomain
  - all mail are sent to myname@mailrelay.localdomain and get redirected to
    myname@myworkstation.localdomain. All replies will have myname@mailrelay.localdomain
    appearing as sender in message header.

  That is :

                   incoming
		   mail
sender@else.world ------> mynamemailrelay.localdomain ----------------> myname

							  outgoing mail
recipient@else.world <------ mynamemailrelay.localdomain <-------------- myname


  In mailrelay:/usr/mail/myname, it looks like :

  Forward to myname@myworkstation.localdomain

  Now, I want to be able to achieve this further such that all mails get sent to
  myname@remote.host will get directed myname@mailrelay.localdomain, which in 
  turn get directed to myname@myworkstation.localdomain. This can be done 
  easily with saying :

  myname@mailrelay.localdomain

  in remote.host:~myname/.forward

  Now, on myworkstation.localdomain, I want to be able to :
  1) reply to all mails sent to myname@remote.host such that it will have 
     myname@remote.host appears as the sender's address!
  2) send mail as myname@remote.host to others on either local domain or
     rest of the world.

  Can someone tell me if this achievable ? Thanks in advance.
