            Bug ID: 289900
           Summary: dma(8) set alias in To: header
           Product: Base System
           Version: Unspecified
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: marko.cupac@mimar.rs

Hi,

when using dma to route outgoing mail (daily reports from periodic) through
external SMTP server (MS Exchange in this particular example), To: field in
header is set to 'root' even when it is aliased to another address by means of
/etc/aliases. This is quite confusing to receivers when alias is set to a
distribution group consisting of members which have nothing to do with root.

Wouldn't it be more appropriate to set To: field to an alias? Or at least make
it configuration choice?

Thank you in advance,
