Hello,
the following question seems to be of interest for a lot of people, as I
found many similar questions in the net - but until now I couldn't find a
solution to the problem.
I want to change the senders identity completely - when user root sends an
email, addresses are rewritten - ok - but if you take a nearer look at the
mail, you'll find out very fast who's the real sender of the mail.
Here is an example:
Content of file /etc/email-addresses:
root: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
When typing :
echo "mycontent" | mail -s "mysubject" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
at the prompt as user root local user 'john' receives the following mail:
Return-path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Envelope-to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Delivery-date: Mon, 13 Nov 2006 14:31:52 +0100
Received: from root by mydomain.de with local (Exim 4.63)
(envelope-from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
id 1Gjbuh-0002Xu-Gc
for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Mon, 13 Nov 2006 14:31:51 +0100
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: mysubject
Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
From: root <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2006 14:31:51 +0100
mycontent
In the exim.conf file I put the following rewriting-rule:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] "${lookup{${local_part}}lsearch{/etc/email-addresses}\
{$value}fail}" Eh
MY QUESTIONS:
What can I do if I absolutely don't want to see the 'root' in the 'Received:
from ...' and 'From: ...' lines?
Or even more important - is the solution of this problem within the range of
possibilties of exim?
(System is Debian Sarge, Exim4)
