What's the mailbox spec in the config file?


(BTW -- your mail client is configured in a very odd way.
In the headers,

    From: =3D?windows-1257?Q?Tadas_=3DDEelionis?=3D <spam@fluxus.lt>
        [...]
    Sender: =3D?iso-8859-1?Q?Tadas_=3DDEelionis?=3D <tm@yes.lt>

-- i.e., it has decided to use a non-standard character
set to express your `from' address, but a standard one to
express the `sender' address. It's not a serious problem,
but it's a bit bizarre.)
