How do I get the uucp node name passed to postfix when the mail is
sent ?

If the clients are all running postfix at their sites as the SMTP/UUCP
interface you may be able to add a custom header there.

No  I cannot control the sending servers MTA.
Also I have no reason to trust the sending servers headers

Is there a way I can add the header after the mail has been recd. I am
ready to patch my uucico/rmail for this if required.

I know on my OpenBSD/Taylor's UUCP setup, uuxqt sets the environment
variable UU_MACHINE with the remote node name. OpenBSD's rmail pass it
to sendmail so it can use it in the Received header.

But I can't find a description of your setup. (Which unix-like?
Commercial UUCP or Taylor's UUCP? Which MTA you currently use? Is your
rmail from your OS or directly taken from your MTA sources?)

Like the rmail from Postfix is just a shell script. It be easy to call
"formail" from procmail to add any header.

That OpenBSD's rmail trick is only found on OpenBSD and depends on the
sendmail's -p switch which is ignored by Postifx's sendmail
compatibility interface.

I have looked at that policyd thingie and I haven't figured how to use
it for your requirement.


I use Centos Linux and postfix.

Probably I could use the env variable in rmail

Let me check that
.
