When you are sending client e-mail through TMDA via tmda-sendmail or tmda-ofmipd, the existing fullname info from the "From:" header as generated by the MUA is retained.
When TMDA is responding to incoming mail via tmda-filter, it attempts to calculate a value for the fullname portion of "From:" if the FULLNAME variable is not set in /etc/tmdarc or ~/.tmda/config. First it looks for environment variables like 'NAME' and 'MAILNAME', and then tries to extract a fullname from /etc/passwd. Failing that, it defaults to "Jane Doe". If you just want the "From:" header to contain the e-mail address only, without "Jane Doe", you could add the following to your /etc/tmdarc: FULLNAME = "" Hmm, I wonder if it wouldn't make sense to use "" instead of "Jane Doe" as the default in TMDA when no real fullname can be determined. Just the e-mail address (no fullname) is probably better than a bogus fullname in environments where /etc/passwd isn't relevant. _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
