I finally got send mail to work. Hurray Hurray But... I would like to change the local user's log-on name in the 'Recieved' field and in the 'From' field to something other than the log-on name. The man page is not really clear to me. Do I need to use the aliases file or is this just for the incoming mail?

aliases is just for incoming mail, what you want is the generics table. There is a basic setup included in SuSE's template. /Michael -- This space intentionally left non-blank. -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/

I found the generics table -- but where can I find a description of how it works and how to activate it?

There's a HOWTO (on SuSE 6.1) which shows how to use the genericstable, file:/usr/doc/howto/en/html/mini/Sendmail-Address-Rewrite.html -- Ken Irving Trident Software jkirving@mosquitonet.com -- To unsubscribe send e-mail to suse-linux-e-unsubscribe@suse.com For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the FAQ at http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/
