    Default qmail?

    Ok, well I installed qmail and all that jazz through Matt's Mail
    toaster. Everything appeared to have been installed without any
    problems, obviously some tweaking had to be done to customize the
    installation but nothing major. At this point, my only problem appears
    to be the from address that its used when sending the daily run output
    - i.e. its sending from [email]root@somedomianIdontknow.com[/email] as opposed to
    root@mydomain or at least localhost which would be just fine.

    Has anyone got any experience with this? I just need to know where to
    change that darned from address. I'd hate to have to reinstall the
    toaster _again_ :(

    Cheers!

    I believe this is done in your /var/qmail/control/defaultdomain and
    /var/qmail/control/defaulthost files.
    In fact, check through all the files in the control dir to make sure
    they are right.

    I did actually, it USED to have somedomain.com in a lot of the files
    but I changed them to the actual domain. Should they be the mail
    server's host or the domain?

    My defaulthost just has "myhost", and defaultdomain has "mydomain".

    My daily run output is sent from [email]root@myhost.mydo[/email]main

    I've added "localhost" to the "locals" and "rcpthosts" files. Seemed
    to take care of that.
