Stone" Subject: Setting proper From host in Sendmail Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" X-Spam-Status: No, hits=0.5 required=4.5 tests=SPAM_PHRASE_01_02 version=2.44-sageamerules_v1 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Pardon me if this is OT, but it is probably an easy question for many on this list. The problem: Host on my Internal network sends out formmail replies as FROM "www.thehost.com" QUESTION: How can I make it show the replies as being from the sender -- my web forms provide for picking up the "From" field. If I test this on my gateway/router machine, it inserts the right FROM info as "sender@somewhere.net" instead of the "www". Is there some setting in Sendmail that will make that machine (aliased on the LAN) over-ride the "www" and use the proper "From" field of the sender...??? Appreiate any help on this as I need the proper "From" so that the auto-responder can send out automatic replies to the customer. Best regards, Jack L.
