Hi group , 
  
 Whish you all Happy New Year.
 I using Fedora core 2 with working sendmail server sendmail-8.12.11-4.6
  I want to change the From: email address of the email when the mail goes out 
from the server. For this I refer the following doc. but it is not working as 
what I want ,
 
 http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Sendmail-Address-Rewrite-2.html
 
 As per the doc I done the following steps 
 1)  confirm my internal and external mails are working properly.
 2)  configure the relay by "SMART_HOST" and confirm that mail is going 
outside.     
 
 define(`SMART_HOST',`mail-out.your.provider')
 
 3) Then I define the genericsdomain and genericstable parameter at the bottom 
of the file as 
 
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)
FEATURE(genericstable, `hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable')
GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/mail/genericsdomain')
 4)  Then I check my hostname by "hostname  -f" and put the host in file 
/etc/mail/genericsdomain
 here my host name is   "jayesh.test.com"
 
 5)  Then I configure the /etc/mail/genericstable file as followes.
 demo1        [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 demo2        [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
 
 6) Both the demo1 & demo2 are the system users, 
 
 7) when I configure email client for demo1 , I can sent the local email to 
other user properly.   But when I send the email to any of the other external 
domain , the From address is not changing . I got the mail on the remote 
external id but no change in From: address. 
 
Do anybody know what I am missing here. for From: address rewriting. 

Thanks & Regards
Jayesh shinde
