[comp.mail.sendmail] How to make sendmail system alias name be From: line?

sam@ccvs3.uucp (Sam Moore) (05/12/89)

I want to have an entry in /usr/lib/aliases such that the alias name
will be placed in the From: line, so replies will go back to everyone
in the list.

On machine called "mymachine" in /usr/lib/aliases file:

list-name: user1@mach1, user2@mach2

Produce header with following From: line:

From: list-name@mymachine


Thanks.

Thanks to Karl Kleinpaste for answering this for me. He reran a previous
article that I missed.


I will forward his answer to anyone else that missed it.

Thanks again.
