Hacking sendmail is out of the question - I am not a programmer. I am just wondering why such a useful feature has never been implemented. I shall give you an example setup. There is a small private uucp network not connected to the Internet. Its nodes are called "alpha", "beta" and "gamma". I want to join this network, so my nodename in this network will be "delta" while my internet hostname is "vas.tomsk.su". I have setup /etc/sendmail.cw so I shall probably be able to receive mail for "delta". I have setup /etc/mailertable so that all my mail to "user@alpha" is indeed spooled to the system "alpha". I have setup the uucp configs and especially the "myname" variable so that when "alpha" calls me my system introduces itself as "delta". But. The major problem is that when I write a mail to "user@alpha", this mail is from "vas.tomsk.su" while I want it to be from "delta". Any solution? -- Victor Sudakov http://www.tomsk.su/r/persons/vas.htm
