	I need for my FreeBSD 2.2.8 machine to send mail, and have it appear as
	though it comes from my  ISP account, since I don;t have a real domain,
	and my usier ID on my machines is differetn from my user ID on the ISP
	machine.

	Thanks to Mark Ovens, I know have masquerading working so my maill now
	apperas to come from the isp's doamin. However I am still trying to get
	my user name rewriten. Mark pointed me to a web page describing how to
	do this, but the method of doing it thier requires creating a dummy
	account on my machine with the user name from the ISP> I really don;t
	want to do this, since I ahve in the past done it in i what I consider
	a much easire way. This involves just using sendmails rewrite rules.

	However the problem is that I was using an earlier version of sendmail
	at the time. Version 5.65 to be specific. With thisa version, I was
	able to add the following rules to ruleet 11:

	Rstan<$+>       $:stanb<$1$.>   rewrite sender to awod acount name
	Rsandi<$+>      $:sandib<$1$.>  For sandi also

	Which originaly looked like:

	S11
	R$*<@$+.UUX>            $@$2!$1<@$w>            add local domain to UUCP address
	R<@$+>:$*               $@<@$w>:@$1:$2          add local domain to source route
	R$+<@$+>                $@$1<@$2>               already has domain
	R$+                     $:$1<@$?Y$Y$|$w$.>      add local domain

	And all was well.

	The veersion of sendmail installed on my 2.2.8 machne is 8.8.8.1 
	And now ruleset 11 looks like:

	S11  
	R$+         $: $>51 $1          sender/recipient common 
	R$* :; <@>      $@              list:; special case
	R$*         $: $>61 $1          qualify unqual'ed names
	R$+         $: $>94 $1          do masquerading 

	And appending the two rewrite rules no longer works.

	Can some kind soul give me some guidance ere?

	Thanks.
