OK, I have a FreeBSD box running postfix and TMDA.

What I want is to use an alias for the TMDA challenge/response, and not the
account name itself.  I want the confirmation message going out without
using the unix account name.

Here is what I have tried:

USERNAME = "fhe"
HOSTNAME = "elitists.org"
FULLNAME = "F. Even"
MESSAGE_FROM_STYLE = "angles"
CONFIRM_ADDRESS = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Now...the unix account name itself is something completely different, lets
call it "acctname."

Now, first of all, when the confirmation message, the message does not send
out using the "USERNAME" I have specified, but the unix acctname.  Yet, the
message is sent w/ the correct "FULLNAME" and "MESSAGE_FROM_STYLE."  Now,
when someone tries to confirm their message w/ the above config, it also
fails.  

Someone sends me a message, they will get the confirmation request from the
"CONFIRM_ADDRESS" above, yet when they go to confirm, they will get a
response which is another confirmation request.  Now if I comment out the
"CONFIRM_ADDRESS" above and let tmda create the confirmation address using
the local unix "acctname," it then works.

The "CONFIRM_ADDRESS" above is an alias pointing to "acctname."  Is there
any particular reason why this does not work?

Thanks for any assistance you guys can provide.

Frank
