Hai all,
In RHEL4 i installed Postfix...When i send a mails to users
it will going user@host.domain.com...
i want rewrite the header like user@domain.com
Where can i set this option excatly pls tell me.......


Regards,
Vinay.G

In main.cf, set and reload postfix.

Hai Berhanie,

In Main.cf i put same entry (myorigin = $mydomain)also iam getting user@host.domain.com..

Is the mail being sent from (i.e. originating on) that machine, or merely relayed by it?
Is your mail client (MUA) inserting the undesired "From:" header?

I didn't get u

Iam installed same system act as a DNS,dovecot and Postfix servers...
My FQDN is vinay.test.one
my mail id is root.test.one
when iam send a mails to user@test.one it is not working
then i send mails to user@vinay.test.one it is working...

Same problem i found in sendmail also...
At the time in sendmail.mc file i added this entry
MASQUARDE_AS ('test.one')
then it is going to user@test.one

I misunderstood. I thought your problem was with the return address.

So, is the problem that you want your machine to accept mail of the form user@test.one? If so, you can add $mydomain to mydestination, so it would look something like

I tried but result is same...
i have a one doubt here masquarde option is not here why...

I am still not sure what "the result" is (or, what your original question is, for that matter). Could you please describe the problem more precisely?

when iam send a mails to user@test.one it is not working
then i send mails from to user@vinay.test.one it is working...
user to root@vinay.test.one it is working..

After Configure the Postfix...
my system ip:192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

my changes in main.cf

mydomain = vinay.test.one
myorigin = $mydomain
inet_interfaces = all
#inet_interfaces = localhost (by default it is enabled)
mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain
mynetworks_style = subnet
mynetworks = 192.168.1.0/28, 127.0.0.0/8



These are my changes

Your FQDN should probably be assigned to myhostname, rather than to mydomain, so:
After making this change and reload postfix with "postfix reload" please send mail to user@test.one and user@vinay.test.one and post the relevant log file entries (look in places like /var/log/maillog).

Please post the complete log of the transaction, not just starting with the qmgr entry. It would also be helpful to see the output of "postconf -n".

By the way, according to RFC 1893, the sendmail error is:
