I must add, masquerading is only applicable if you can always replace
your host name with that of the masqueraded one.
e.g., I run a host called arcanum.m.org.nz. I can masquerade as
m.org.nz, since m.org.nz has an MX record pointing to arcanum, and
m.org.nz is listed in control/locals. For all intents and purposes,
arcanum is identical to m.org.nz.
However, I doubt your userlist will match that of newsguy.com. So
I think you shouldn't masquerade at all. If you want your From
address to say newsguy.com, just set MAILHOST in your ~/.profile.
