Hi,
	I'm using standard sun sendmail.cf on a network of Sun W.S. running O.S.
4.1.2. I very happy with it but for one thing:

When I send messages I can mail to user@foo.bar, the server knows that it has to be passed to the mailhost machine by smartuucp mailer.
 (I only have internet access by uucp through mailhost)

Why then, when I get incoming messages, they alway come as:

From: mailhost!foo.bar!user . Is there any way to get them as:
From: user@foo.bar  as I would expect (and like to see!).

Any help will be MUCH appreciated as well as pointers to the RTFM :-).

Thanks a lot in advance.

P.S.  Please reply by e-mail *ONLY* as I am not able to read news (yet!) :-{

--Max
