I recently installed Mush 7.2.0 (dated 10/31/90) at our site and I'm having
one small problem. When I send mail out through mush, my Internet address
is being formed incorrectly. The addresses I get are in the following format:
gpitcher@edpmgt.edpmgt.cts.com.
The problem is, we're just edpmgt.cts.com. It seems that Mush is for some
reason prepending another edpmgt to my addresses. Just to give some more
information, I'm using sendmail as my MTA on a Sun w/ SunOS 4.0.2. Mail is
transported via UUCP using the smartuucp mailer (smartuucp allows you to use
internet addresses). One last note... if I use the standard sun mail program,
I have no problems.
Any suggestions??
Thanks,
--

You can override this by using 'set hostname=edpmgt.cts.com", but you might want to look into why gethostname() is returning what it is. -- Bart Schaefer schaefer@zipcode.com Z-Code Software Corporation schaefer@cse.ogi.edu
