Outbound email re-direct using Sendmail
I need to reconfigure Sendmail to strip the SMTP email addresses from all email and replace them with a single address used for testing purposes.
I have a vended application hosted on Solaris 10 servers. I have access to support the application framework (IBM WebShere Application Server 6.1), but I cannot install additional software to the server.
Our application uses the local installation of Sendmail to send alerts and notifications to standard SMTP email accounts. Everything is working in all of our environments, which is where my problem lies. Our non-production environments are sending test emails to live users because our application requires all environments to use the same LDAP directory.
My searches have led to many threads talking about configuring Sendmail to redirect email through relays to other mail servers, but I cannot find anything about changing the destination email addresses.
Please provide some guidance or links to any documentation that covers this requirement.
Thanks.

of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
negotiation, the message headers are not modified.
Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.
