Only if you send mail with just a username in "From:", e.g. From: haines In general, one prefers to handle the "From:" address at the MUA level. The only advantage or disadvantage is that if you send a mail to [email protected], I think that it will be sent locally instead of remotely (that is, going to the smarthost). The local mailbox and the remote mailbox are generally different. So this depends on what you prefer. > However just changing it does not fix my problem.
