Hi,

I noticed some weird behavior regarding the "From:" header when using smtpd under some circumstances, not sure if this is a bug.

The setup:
1.) Main mail server with sendmail hostname mail.domain.tld and local-host-names containing domain example.com. 2.) A second server with hostname some.thing.example.com and running smtpd, root mails are forwarded using aliases to recipi...@example.com.

The problem:
Mails generated on server 2 (some.thing.example.com) from /etc/daily or anything else that go to root get forwarded properly to server 1, but the From: header gets rewritten to r...@mail.domain.tld. Normally I would expect the From: header to be r...@some.thing.example.com. When using sendmail instead of smtpd on server 2 as well, that is the case.

Ideas? Suggestions?

Thanks,
Michael
