Here's the deal: I'm using FreeBSD 4.1.1, with the default sendmail install. I've got cable access with videotron.ca. My machine's name is dimmu, and since the IP is assigned via DHCP, FreeBSD automatically added videotron.ca at the end of the machine name. Hence, my machine's "unofficial" name is dimmu.videotron.ca. When I fetch my mail with fetchmail (which is addressed to kint@videotron.ca), sendmail automatically discards it since it is not addressed to the local host (dimmu.videotron.ca). How can I correct this ? Also, how can I *easily* rewrite headers OR create an aliase of some kind so my mail shows up as from kint@videotron.ca instead of kint@dimmu.videotron.ca ?
