agreed.. i just didnt want people to think it would make or break them
if the way the hostname was grabbed. why not give people a choice?
then you dont have complaints.
my $hostname_method = 0; # 0-hardcode, 1-dynamic
my $hostname='localhost';
if ($hostname_method) {
# HOSTNAME GRABBED DYNAMICALLY
open(ME,"/var/qmail/control/me");
flock(ME,2);
my $temphost=<ME>;
close(ME);
$temphost =~ s/[^A-Za-z0-9\-\.]//g; # strip invalid chars
$temphost =~ m/(.*)/; # gotta do it to make it taint safe.. blah
$hostname = $1;
}
