Just upgraded our server to Slackware 11.0, using Sendmail. One annoying problem is that mail created on the server has a from of host.sld.tld, rather than the preferred sld.tld.

Anyone know where I go to change this?

Thanks.
 
You can use LOCAL_RULE_2 in sendmail config, there you put this line:
R$+<@host.sld.tld.> $1<@sld.tld.>

When Using this sendmail will cut of the "host" portion.

Regards,
