Hi,
I have read the relevant section of the FAQ, which gives the following
rewrite rule for sender addresses only:
*@*.your.domain $1@??? Ffrs
However, this doesn't seem to be working for me, as i get the following:
-- <snip> --

Some hosts reject mail from sonic.ku.ved.mydomain.com, because that
domain doesn't exist - the host sonic is inaccessble from the outside.
So I get mail delivery errors saying the Sender does not exist. Am I
wrong in assuming that the rewrite rule above will get rid of the host
part in sender address?
Kindest regards,
--ibs.
