I am guessing that your username on your box is not the same as the one you use when sending out mail. You need the FEATURE(`genericstable') in your .mc file. Here is the way my .mc looks ... OSTYPE(bsd4.4)dnl define(`SMART_HOST', `esmtp:smtp.earthlink.net')dnl FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')dnl FEATURE(`local_procmail')dnl FEATURE(`genericstable', `hash /etc/mail/genericstable')dnl GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/mail/genericsdomain')dnl FEATURE(`nouucp') MASQUERADE_AS(`earthlink.net')dnl MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl My login is ipt and all of my outgoing mail goes out as ipthomas_77@yahoo.com. The gist of the file genericstable is ... localname newname@whatever.host.domain Check out www.moongroup.com and look under docs. Much info on setting up email.
