Message-ID: <1991Apr11.212112.4119@engin.umich.edu> Sender: news@engin.umich.edu (CAEN Netnews) Organization: University of Michigan Engineering, Ann Arbor Date: Thu, 11 Apr 1991 21:21:12 GMT I'm going to be running a machine that will be for use by people who don't have don't have mail-capable accounts on the Unix machines we administrate, and will therefore have to recieve their mail at some other mailbox. I've set up the news system to change their From: line in news articles to an address that they give (stored in .mailname), and I'm wondering if there's some way to do something similar with sendmail -- have it set the From: line to the contents of the .mailname file. It could even fail if the .mailname file doesn't exist -- it's not that important. Any ideas?
