My home network is named home.edu and the machine is named eiger, so it's fq name is eiger.home.edu. My public domain is 3times25.net, so email sent from that machine should show up as coming from esoteric@3times25.net, instead it's showing up as esoteric@eiger.home.edu.
That is more the job of the sending client. Only, if an email address is not fully qualified, Postfix will qualify the address with the value of $myorigin, which defaults to $mydomain.
execute as root: postconf -e "mydomain = 3times25.net" postconf -e "myhostname = www.3times25.net" postconf -e "myorigin = $mydomain" postfix reload
Then test again. If that doesn't solve your problem, please post the output of "postconf -n" and a part of the log lines where the trouble appears.
Thanks, this addressed the issue. I believe I attempted the same by editing the config file. Now I want to go back and figure out what I missed.
"postconf -n" shows the configuration as Postfix will see it with all parameters that do not match the default. If a parameter does not appear here with the value you assigned, you need to check for spelling mistakes or later lines overriding previously defined values. The one exception is that restriction classes do not appear in this configuration view. Sandy -- List replies only please! Please address PMs to: news-reply2 (@) japantest (.) homelinux (.) com
