Hi,

My biggest difficulty with Exim has always been to emulate what a
"normal" mailer does when using an external SMTP server, just taking the
'From' address as it is.

With qualify_domain set to it's default (localhost), Exim ignores my
"From: " line and just uses username@host instead. This is very
irritating, because the e-mail address I use, isn't local at all. And my
local hostname is just a dummy one.

Setting qualify_domain to 'wtf.dk' will cause the e-mail address to be
correct, but it will make all outgoing e-mails to be suffixed by
@wtf.dk, so I how should I handle this issue?

Thanks in advance.
