Hello all,
This is my first post. I'm using postfix 2.3.3 on some Centos 5.x boxes strictly to send mail for alerting purposes. I've got relaying setup to go to our main smtp server which is running FreeBSD 6.x and postfix. What I'm trying to do is for the outgoing messages to show the hostn...@chapman.edu so I can look at the incoming message and know what box the alert is coming from. The scripts I'm using are utilizing mailx to send the messages. I setup sender_canonical and the address rewriting is working properly. The problem that I'm having is that the mail is displayed in my mail client as just root. When I open the message it shows: Root [hostn...@chapman.edu] or "root" <hostn...@chapman.edu> Depending on the client. I checked the header of the message and it shows (this is an excerpt: From: kennedydhcp...@chapman.edu (root)). What I want to do is get rid of "Root[...]" and just have the rewritten email address displayed in the mailbox list. How can I accomplish this? Thanks. ____________________________ Matt Ausmus Network Administrator Chapman University 635 West Palm Street Orange, CA 92868 (714)628-2738 maus...@chapman.edu <mailto:maus...@chapman.edu> "Man will occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of the time he will pick himself up and continue on." - Churchill's Commentary on Man
