Deliver 2.0 Patch #3

Patch #3 for Deliver 2.0 includes only one changes, but it's an important
one if you're using a picky mail user agent like the Xenix /usr/bin/mail.

If a message has a valid From_ line, Deliver retains it.  However, if the
From_ line has a "remote from" clause, Deliver prepends the remote host to
the From_ address.  Unfortunately, a small bug in the "remote from" removal
left a spurious space at the end of the From_ line.  This patch removes that
space.

This patch contains changes to the following files:
	patchlevel.h
	copymsg.c
