We have a similar problem here. I large site, with numerous perl forms
was moved over here from a sendmail server on another ISP. The
form-generated messages used to show as coming from
'webmaster@<domain.com>', but now they show '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
as the reply-to. I.e. the hostname of the server gets inserted. If this
is not controllable in qmail, perhaps someone on this list can direct
me to the proper source.
