I am currently running sqwebmail v0.47-3 on a Debian Sarge machine. Everything seems to running fine except, the host, in this case services1, rather then FQDN is displayed in the upper right corner of the page. Also when a user attempts to create a new mail the from address is <USER>@services1. How can I change this? I tried to search the archives, but...

...the answer is in the INSTALL document in the top level of the source tarball. Search for 'hostname'

Thanks for the info, it gave me a good starting point for finding the solution. The problem was the INSTALL document does not seem to be included with the Debian sarge package. I downloaded the most recent tarball and easily found you reference which explained about /usr/lib/sqwebmail/etc/hostname, problem number 2, Debian does not use /usr/lib/sqwebmail. I then searched the /usr/share/doc/sqwebmail/changelog.Debian.gz file and it made reference to a config file /etc/courier/defaultdomain that was supposed to be added, but did not exist on my system. I created the file, put the domain that I wanted to use in it and it now works.

Again, thanks for your help it was great, and I only posting this explanation so that it might help someone else in the future.

Have a great day...
