I'm sure this is simple but I haven't found the answer in the documentation. Using the "create message" screen the generated "From" address is quoted as "peterb@linux ", the user name is correct but "linux" is the machine name. This is not very useful, I want "pet@ptwol.net " where ptwol.net is the local domain. I know users can change the field but they shouldn't have to.

How can I configure sqwebmail so that the generated from address uses the local domain rather than the machine name?

Hi Peter,

I hope that following command helps you:

sudo sh -c 'echo "ptwol.net" > /etc/courier/defaultdomain'

If a place of your Courier configuration is different, then fix the command, of course :)

My best regards,

Pawel
