Greetings,

1. Trying to get sendmail to change my username and hostname
in from/sender/reply-to header in my messages:
Added these to /etc/sendmail.mc:
FEATURE(always_add_domain)dnl
MASQUERADE_AS("one.net.au")dnl
This works after processing with m4 etc
So my messages now appear to come from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
But really need it to be [EMAIL PROTECTED]
So try this:
FEATURE(`genericstable',`hash -o /etc/genericstable')
with /etc/genericstable containing:
home_username        isp_username

Does not switch the username in the from/sender header.

a) not sure about hash command. from command line it does not like -o
option
b) not sure about format of /etc/genericstable

2. Given:

Why does sendmail try to look up DNS when I send a local message?

3. Why does Netscape look up DNS when I point at local machine name?

Can I get around this and still have pppd running in demand mode?

Does this mean running DNS locally?

Sorry for the high number of questions.

Seeya, Josh
