| mydomain = foo.com
| myhostname = mail.foo.com
| myorigin = $mydomain

| Whenever I send mail out from the command line using either the mail or
| sendmail command, the mail will be sent as "root@xxxxxxxxxxxx" instead of
| "root@xxxxxxx".  It uses whatever the hostname of the machine is...not the
| hostname listed in main.cf.  If I run the command "hostname
| newname.foo.net" and then send mail out, it will go out as
| "root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx".   I've never seen this problem before on any other

I use canonical maps to re-write addresses with postfix. Example:

In main.cf
sender_canonical_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/canonical_sender

In canonical_sender
root   root@xxxxxxxxxxxx
scowles steve@xxxxxxxxxxx
etc...

BTW: I don't canonicalize the root account. I show it above as an
example only.
