Masquerading in sendmail.cf

[Bill Clark]

Mick you don't have to use sendmail for this.  The domain is what ever you
tell the SMTP server to be.  You can configure this with any email client.
In Pine you would set the user-domain to foo.bar.  But if you want the MTA
to do this, you could also get rid of sendmail I did years ago it totally
sucks.  Qmail rocks it's pretty easy to configure and a lot safer to use.
Lately I have been playing with Postfix and I am starting to like it better
than qmail for simple stuff.  I thought qmail was a lot simpler to use than
sendmail, well Postfix is even simpler but less developed.

Anyhow if you have to stick with that archaic nightmare that I call sendmail
and have been trying to forget for the last 4 years then go here.  It talks
about virtual hosting.  Skip down past the DNS section to the sendmail
configuration section you will find a detailed explanation.

Hi all :)

How would I go about to configure my sendmail.cf so that an email sent from
user "dude" on the machine "box.foo.bar" looks like it comes from
"dude at foo.bar" and not "dude at box.foo.bar"?

Hope I explained it clear enough :)

Thank you all in advance!
