My outgoing messages have an envelope sender automatically generated by
qmail using what I told qmail is my system's hostname: phoenix.local.
Certain software packages (ezmlm, for instance) rely on the envelope
sender; it would also be nice to get bounce messages when appropriate....
Ideally, the envelope sender for messages sent to local users should be
just what it is now, but the envelope sender on messages which go to the
Internet should be the same as the From: header. Failing that, it would
be acceptable simply to change the envelope sender to match the From:
header on all messages. (I configured my MUA to alter the From: header
to my Internet-reachable address. This isn't ideal for local-to-local
messages, but oh well....)
(How) can I convince qmail to do this? Is this done by using a
command-line option when my MUA calls what it thinks is sendmail?
P.S. -- Thanks, Russel -- I was able to subscribe after following
your advice. :-)
