The thing to do is have your MUA put in your own 'From:' line. I'm not precisely sure how to get mh to do that, haven't used it since grad days at MIT. All you should really do for sendmail is go to /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/cf and copy the generic BSD4.4 file to your own .mc file. Add, define(`SMART_HOST',`<your mailserver>')dnl And then make the .cf file, # m4 ../m4/cf.m4 yourfile.mc > yourfile.cf See /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README for more details. Then move the new .cf file to /etc/mail/sendmail.cf and SIGHUP sendmail. -- Crist J.
