You should start by getting patch 4, which includes additional files and patches specifically for the apollo. } 2-> The From: line of the messages I send will contain the name of } the machine I sent the message from. This is a generic problem resulting from mush's use of the first host alias returned by gethostbyname() [the first word of the $hostname variable] when constructing addresses. Frequently that is the simple hostname with no domain. A properly configured sendmail will rewrite those to the full domain, but properly configured sendmails appear to be rather rare beasts. set hostname = "$hostname:2 $hostname:1" in /usr/lib/Mushrc or your .mushrc will usually fix it. Failing that, set hostname = "jsp.com $hostname" (where jsp.com is whatever you want the From: to use). -- Bart Schaefer schaefer@z-code.com Z-Code Software Corporation schaefer@cse.ogi.edu
