Help: Stripping machine name from sendmail
|
|

| Hi
I need to route all email via Sendmail at my Unix box through my
Exchange server, but the problem is that when the emails get relayed
they keep the machine name example. atlantis.crawford.com and some
sites do Reverse DNS on email addresses so they treat that address as
spam.
I need to find out how to stripe the machine name in sendmail so the
mail looks like @crawford.com.
Any idea how I can do that in sendmail ??
Thanks,
Bill

From this article :
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/63
You need to use "Dj" to setup the visible.hostname.org", eg:
# Set from address as @crawford.com
Djcrawford.com
Then setup the forwarding with 'DS', eg:
#
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DSexchange.mail.relay.example.com

This isn't how one should configure sendmail, please never ever
touch sendmail.cf, edit sendmail.mc and generate sendmail.cf with
help of m4.
