I am having a problem with my sendmail configuration I have masquerading on but when I send a mail to multiple people it masquerades my email but not the others? see the sample below:

From: name@domain.net
Sent: Friday, July 24, 2009 9:42 AM
To: name2@machine.domain.net; name3@machine.domain.net; name4@machine.domain.net
Subject: Used Inventory


in this way if someone does a reply to all names 2,3,4 and 5 bounce back as bad addresses.

how can I have it masquerade all email addresses from my domain?

Thanks,

Gary
 
I had some issue with this as well and this fixed it for me
MASQUERADE_AS(`mycompany.com')dnl
dnl #
dnl # masquerade not just the headers, but the envelope as well
dnl #
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
dnl #
dnl # masquerade not just @mydomainalias.com, but @*.mydomainalias.com as well
dnl #
FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl
dnl #
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`mycompany.com')dnl

Thanks normntwrk

I made these changes to my system and it didn't fix my original problem but it did fix a few others. the original problem only seems to happen if i send a mail internally to someone without the domain name added like this:

mail gary

it will be delivered but will show up with gary@machinename.domainname.net
 
How about the local-host-names file- include all aliases for your machine here.

include your domainname.net as well as the fully qualified name in here
