Hello

While getting sendmail set-up on a new server box, i ended up with this problem. Sendmail is sending and receiving email. I am using gmail's smtp server for sending the emails. I set this up via this link's (http://www.phinesolutions.com/sendmail-gmail-smtp-relay-howto.html) tut.

The problem is that gmail says that the email address that sent the email is from the gmail account used for the email, not the address in the headers. I think this is becuase sendmail is putting in the header that the email is from user@localhost instead of user@something.com.

Anyone have any experience with this. Attached is my modified mc, with the domains changed to something.com

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Roger B.

UPDATE:

Ok, after doing some additional research, google will no matter what replace it, or so it seems, but even then the header should not be reporting user@localhost.

So still looking for a solution to that.
