Hi all,

I am using gnus in xemacs as my mail client and exim as my MTA.
When I do a mailq on the server after sending a message from gnus, I
get something along the lines of the following :

 3m  1.1K 15U3fP-0006JC-01 <waynep@pan.domain.com>
          recipient@somedomain.com

My problem is that the address that should show up in place of
waynep@pan.domain.com is wayne.pascoe@domain.com
Because it is using the user@host value here, I am not able to mail
certain servers. I get the following kinds of messages in my exim
mainlog: 

2001-08-07 11:01:02 15U3fP-0006JC-01 SMTP error from remote mailer
after RCPT TO:<recipient@somedomain.com>: host smtp1.somedomain.com
[64.40.111.31]: 450 <waynep@pan.domain.com>: Sender address
rejected: Domain not found

Does anyone know how I can fix this? 

TIA,
