YaST2 Mail Address ReWrtiting.

Hey all,
Just a quick question. My situation is this:

SuSE 8.0 running as a mail/web server. It is using Fetchmail to get mail
from a Demon account, and is using sendmail [I don't have time to set up
another MTA]

WinME running as a work machine [for the time being, until I switch it over
;o)]

I have set up outlook to get mail from user "info", as I have all mail for a
domain I own sent to that address.
Outlook is set up to send mails from info@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
When I send an email, it comes up as info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I went into YaST2 -> Network/Basic -> Mail
(x) Permanent [Cable modem]

Under "Virtual Domains" I have:
Alias - mydomain.com
Destination - info
[just in case any get through to a non info@ address]

[Next]

Domains for locally delivered mail includes mydomain.com

Domain for the "From" header is "tigersden.demon.co.uk" as that is my main
mail "domain"

Under Detailed address rewriting, I have:
Local user: info
Display as: info@xxxxxxxxxxxx

I have 4 domains being "served" off this one machine and need to find a way
to allow it to not rewrite addresses from mydomain.com, whilst making sure
that machine names do not get prepended to tigersden.demon.co.uk.

Am I making sense here? If not, please email me to let me know and I will
do my best to try and explain. Yes, english is my first language, and not I
am not very mentally organised ;o)

Cheers,

Jon Jeffels.
