Virden) Organization: N8EMR's Ham BBS (HBBS), Columbus,Ohio Lines: 24 I have seen how aliasing works so that mail addressed to site!john can get converted into site!xyz-pqa-123; this makes it easier for the outside world to send msgs into a site and not have to know the peculiar names being used. Is there a way to configure an Ultrix 1.2 sendmail, rmail, whatever program so that the OUTGOING mail is tagged as going from site!john instead of site!xyz-pqa-123? That is, how does one get sendmail to do outgoing mail; if it isn't sendmail's problem (which the doc infers) then do I have to write a specific mail front end to do this? I know there are things other than Mail, mail, etc. (elm, and so forth) and perhaps they do things different; we are trying to get things working as the software is set up now and will worry about other mail handlers later, thank you. Please send all useful ideas on to me, either here on the group or in email. Private email which seems useful and isnt stamped as proprietary/non- disclosable will be summarized in a week or so.
