I thought I might try this list instead (so I'm sorry if it's a little off topic.) I'm new to FreeBSD and i'm trying to set up my sendmail.cf file to work with my ISP. I have a non dedicated connection and 2 pop3 accounts to worry about for receiving mail. I am a college student and my current main mailing address is n9842643@cc.wwu.edu, along with the secondary address napalm@halcyon.com. I chose the arbitrary name inferno.cc.wwu.edu for my machine name since the university ISP never assigned me one. >From the information I got from the FAQ and handbook, I am now able to send mail out but every message header has the name "root@cc.wwu.edu" instead of "n9842643@cc.wwu.edu" in the reply-to box. Furthermore, I can only see my mail on my system if I am the user name of the mail I am receiving (so I have to change from being root to being n9842643 on my box every time to see my own mail.) I attached a copy of my current sendmail.cf file. Is there anyone out there that can tell me a way to just have everything on my system sent to root, and for my outgoing mail user name to just be n9842643? thanks, -MC -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ____/| Mark A.
