sendmail -f, -F option
Hello,
I have been trying to use 'sendmail' command to create the illusion of emails sent from my server actually coming from a webmaster server. Kinda how like spam mail works.
syntax im using:
# /usr/lib/sendmail -t - F 'Webmaster' -f 'webmaster@email.com'
From:
webmaster@email.com
To:
user@someemail.com
Subject: Feedback Form
Hello World !
.
When the email is received by
user@someemail.com, the "From" header displays 'webmaster@email.com' instead of 'Webmaster'.
I want it to display 'Webmaster'.
Can anyone please help ?
Note: these are invalid email addresses
