Hi All,

I have a specific user on my unix box whos return address i want to change.
How do i do this under sendmail. For example, if i have a user john defined
on my unix box, and my domain is durban.co.za. When the mail is sent it
sends out the return address as john@durban.co.za. But I want the return
address to be jupiter@durban.co.za. I only want to do this for the one user
only. Is this at all possible under sendmail. I did try adding the following
in the userdb
                        john:mailname jupiter
                        jupiter:maildrop john
But this seems only to change the from display name. I actually need to
change the return address. This also needs to automatically be changes as
this specific user runs as a daemon and automatically sends mail so i cannot
change the return address in application such as mailx / sendmail packages
on the commandline.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Thanx
Bruce
