sendmail masquerading question

Stephen Wm. Jones — Wed, 14 May 2003 19:34:57 GMT

Hi.

I'm trying to use linux to collect all email coming ang going then forward it on the an exchange server. I know I can have an exchange address of user@xyz.com but have it look like user@company.com when sending or receiving email.

Question: Is there a doc out there that explains this simply? I'm new to sendmail and I'm having trouble.

This doc helps.

Also including example from my /etc/aliases file which can handle forwarding when rebuilt into the hash database.

The build script is attached.

If the post helps, please assign points.

from /etc/aliases

See buildmail script for implementation issues.

Post back if you need more examples.

Steven,

Thanks for responding. To which doc are you refering? I see the 1 attachement which I gather is the build script.

IMHO,

MASQUERADE_AS(company.com)dnl

MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(internal_domain)dnl

is enough for you.

BTW, you can put few MASQUERADE_DOMAIN lines.

(you need add these lines to you sendmail.mc file and "compile" it with m4)

Duh,

Looks like I forgot to post in my links.

Some of these docs are sendmail 8.12 docs, they usually work for lower versions and will point out when they wont.
