Filter the "from" header.  It contains the actual sender.  The "sender" and
"reply-to" headers have Calcite's address.

What program are you using to filter?  You can use Procmail if you're on a
UNIX machine.  Me, I use Eudora Pro, and it works like a champ.  I wouldn't
read this newsgroup without it.
