Re: fetchmail, sendmail, and mutt and sending mail with the correct a ddress

1999-10-22 Thread Brian Lavender
If you installed sendmail as a package from the Debian distribution,
then you need to add the below line to your /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file
and run the program sendmailconfig as root

MASQUERADE_AS(ntrnet.net)dnl

This should produce a line in your /etc/mail/sendmail.cf which looks like

DMntrnet.net

The sendmailconfig should restart sendmail, and everything should
work.

 I thought I had my mail system setup correctly, but then I noticed a

 When I send mail from my linux box (which is connected to the internet
 via ppp,) it sends mail as if its coming from suit.ntrnet.net which is
 wrong.  Suit is my hosthame and ntrnet.net is my isp domain.  Ntrnet
 doesn't know about my hostname and thus can't forward mail to me.  How
 can I configure my mailsystem so it sends mail as if its from
 ntrnet.net?  ie., [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 Do I need to mess with the sendmail configuration, fetchmail, or mutt?
