Re: [hylafax-users] Sending faxes through email



Dear Bruno,

I do not think it is a problem with access file or local-host-names.

The problem is due to sendmail that does not forward the user@xxxxxxxxxxxxx to hylafax.

Could you tell me how to modify sendmail.cf directly instead of using m4 sendmail.mc > sendmail.cf?

What is the line in sendmail.cf that is LOCAL_DOMAIN(`localhost.localdomain')dnl in sendmail.cf
What is the lines in sendmail.cf that are:
FEATURE(delay_checks)dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
FEATURE(allmasquerade)dnl
FEATURE(masquerade_entire_domain)dnl

Thanks,
Lorenzo
