We also have Alliant, Sequent and Motorola Unix systems on the same ethernet. Mail sent from any Apollo node to the other systems has the from address of user@node, not user@gateway-node, so replies have to be manually changed before mail transfer will work. This same problem applies to any incoming mail to an Apollo ring, forcing users to know which node is configured as the gateway. Is there a way to make the sendmail configuration files on the other Unix systems smarter by rewriting an address for any node to the gateway nodes? I have the basic sendmail documentation and the example configuration files which come with Berkley distribution, none of which are too helpful. I would appreciate any hints, suggestions or examples (!) that anyone might be able to send via email. -- Jerry Vanden Heuvel Voice: (206) 237-5080 Boeing Commercial Airplanes UUCP: ..!uw-beaver!ssc-vax!shuksan!tahoma!grv P.O.
