From aliases using mail and sendmail
May user login is 'malcolm' whereas my ISP allocates me an e-Mail address '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. I can get internode.on.net into the domain of the 'from' address using the masquerade feature in sendmail. But how can I translate the user part: malcolm - malcolm.kay when using mail and sendmail? I really need something like sendmail aliases but operating on outgoing 'from' addresses rather than incoming 'to' addresses.

That's precisely what genericstable is for. You'll need aliases or virtusertable entries as well, to translate the name back to the UID when people send replies to that address.
