Problems sending mail using dtmail in Solaris 2.6
Hello:
When I send e-mail with dtmail my address appears to the receiver like:
user@machine.domainname
What I need is that it appears like:
user@domainname
When I use the mailtool of OpenWindows or the command line "mail" command, I get the desired result (meaning that my sendmail.cf is correct, or at least is what I think). If I use dtmail it adds the name of my machine.
Suggestions any one?

set smtpmailserver=localhost
for this to work your sendmail.cf should be properly configured, I didin't try assigning a mailhost somewhere else, but most probably it should work.
It looks like this dtmail does not use sendmail unless this field is set....
