    sendmail masquerade

    Hello everyone,
    I have a problem with sendmail (sendmail-8.13.8-8.el5) on RedHat 5.4 x64: actually, I just can not configure it so that it rewrites the email address of the sender.
    The mail reaches the recipient always with this return address: root

    But my file is fed genericstable:

    root myemailaddress

    Here is my sendmail.mc file, that I have compiled sendmail.cf with m4

    usually, I modify the following lines:

    dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl

    dnl LOCAL_DOMAIN(`mail.example.org')dnl
    dnl MASQUERADE_AS(`example.org')dnl



    you could try it.

    I have solved my problem in adding this line :
    GENERICS_DOMAIN(srvunx052.domain.local localhost)dnl
    where srvunx052.domain.local was the server's hostname
    Thanks!
