Hello: Thank you for your email. Unfortunately, /etc/email-addresses modifies the RFC-2822's "From: " header, and NOT the "Sender: " one :-(.
I guess, that this is a Netscape mailer problem, since there is no problem with mutt. Apparently, Netscape put a non FQDN "Sender: ", and the smarthost adds its FQDN to that header. regards, Osamu Aoki wrote: > Use /etc/email-addresses to fake source of e-mail. > It's easy and finely configurable! > > Cheers :-) > > On Mon, Sep 03, 2001 at 10:58:00AM +0700, Rahmat M.
