Hi,

 

Everyday, cron is sending me status reports of jobs it ran.

 

In my /etc/mail/aliases I configured root: me@mydomain.com and it works
fine.

 

The problem, is that the mail is coming from

 

root@localhost.mydomain.com

 

We have a spamfirewall and it rejects the mail saying localhost.mydomain.com
is invalid.

 

Where can I change the address root@localhost.mydomain.com to
machinename@mydomain.com ?

 

Thanks a lot
