Quoting Eric Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
> Thanx - this looks interesting - where do I configure genericstable?
On my system (SuSE 5.3, sendmail 8.8.8-22):
user # grep -A 2 FEATURE\(ge /usr/doc/packages/sendmail/RELEASE_NOTES
CONFIG: add FEATURE(genericstable) to do a more general rewriting of
outgoing addresses. Defaults to ``hash -o /etc/genericstable''.
Keys are user names; values are outgoing mail addresses. Yes,
^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
user # locate genericstable
/etc/mail/genericstable
user # su root
root # vim /etc/mail/genericstable
Type: info [EMAIL PROTECTED]
eric [EMAIL PROTECTED]
^^^^^^^^
DON'T use spaces, use tabs instead!
Remember: info, eric are users.
root # makemap hash -f /etc/mail/genericstable.db < /etc/mail/genericstable
root # /sbin/init.d/sendmail stop
root # /sbin/init.d/sendmail start
In /etc/sendmail.cf:
...
# Generics table (mapping outgoing addresses)
Kgenerics hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable.db
...
And your (sendmail)From_-field should look like you want.
But be aware that AFAIK the From_-entry is identical to the
Return-Path: - it should work!
Maybe there are better ways to do that - I'm really not an expert!
