Subject: REPOST : Pine 3.91 and 'From:' without hostname

Hi,

I am using Pine 3.91 since 1 year and I still have a problem I can
solve. It's about 'From:' field in outgoing mail. This one contains
the hostname of my mail exchanger, 'Pinuche' :
[email-masked]. I would like to get just the domainame
: [email-masked]. I have correctly configured my sendmail.cf on
my hosts in order to remove hostname from 'From:' when using 'mail' or
'Mail' but with pine, I still have this problem. However, I have the
lines in pine.conf :

user-domain=grbb.polymtl.ca
use-only-domain-name=no

I tried to use :
user-domain=
use-only-domain-name=yes 

but with no more success. I checked that my .pinerc doesn't have
another configuration.

Any idea about this problem ?

Thanks in advance for your help.				 Gildas.

Dear Gildas,
go to the Setup (press S on the Main Menu page) and then Configuration 
(press C). If the second line down says:
user-domain            = <Value is Fixed: using "Pinuche.grbb.polymtl.ca">
Then this is a sys-admin defined value and you cannot change it even if 
you change the .pinerc file.
Having said that, I have just glanced up at your "From :" and it says:
From: Gildas PERROT <[email-masked]>
How are you seeing if the "Pinuche" is still being added, by sending mail 
to yourself? Try sendiing it to a friend instead.
Mickey
