I have a domain "isnogud.escape.de" which I use for the From: header in mail and news. All my machines have hostnames <host>.isnogud.escape.de and Gnus therefore wants to set the From: header to urs@<host>.isnogud.escpae.de, which is not a valid email address.
For mail I fix this with sendmail masquerading, for news I always have to add the correct From: header by hand. This is not only nasty (and I sometimes forget to set the header causing news posting with invalid email address), it also prevents me from canceling my news postings since Gnus thinks my articles are not my own when I try to cancel. This is probably because the From: header is different from what Gnus would put there. I have searched the Gnus manual but didn't find the solution. I have an old .gnus file which contains the setting of the variable gnus-use-generic-from, which I thought I have found in the docs quite some time ago, but which I can't find anymore. It also doesn't work. How can I make Gnus use the correct From: header in mail and news? urs _______________________________________________ info-gnus-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnus-english
