(relay host) Second, configure sendmail to rewrite the return address on outgoing mail to a valid email address. (gatopardo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) How easy or hard it will be depends on your ISP, and if you have more then one email address you want to use when sending. But do you need to send mail using sendmail on your system? Or would having cron messages, and other system generated messages come to a local account, and letting your mail clients deal directly with your ISP's mail server be a better choice for you?
