sendmail on our hp-ux box is changing the userid of the from address. I have searched the web and read the man pages but can't stop this from happening.
We have a process which creates a text file we pass into sendmail. In the text file we write for example:
But when sendmail sends the email it is changed to
Is possible to fix this and if so, how?
Thanks

I would like to know the difference between the real user-id and the
effective user-id. If user-A runs a program owned by user-B then
which is the real user-id and which is the effective user-id ? (1 Reply)

Hi All,
Can a user-a on linux be able to access to particular path only? I think is not possible because if the /etc have r on the other then user-a can access it. Right?
Thanks for any comment you have will add. (1 Reply)

On one of my servers (AIX 7.1 sendmail=V10/Berkeley) When I login and sudo su to a serviceID and send a test email, the from header shows as being from my loginID and not the serviceID.

deliver
deliver(8) System Manager's Manual deliver(8)NAME
deliver - Delivers mail to an IMAP mailbox
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/deliver [-d] [-r address] [-f address] [-m mailbox] [-a auth-id] [-e] [-q] [-F flag]... [userid]...
deliver -E days
OPTIONS
Ignored for compatibility with /bin/mail Inserts a Return-Path: header containing address Inserts a Return-Path: header containing address
Delivers to mailbox. If any userids are specified, attempts to deliver to user.userid.mailbox for each userid. If the access control list
(ACL) on any such mailbox does not grant the sender the right to post mail (p right) or if -m is not specified, then delivers to the INBOX
for the userid , regardless of the ACL on the INBOX.
If no userids are specified, the deliver command attempts to deliver to mailbox. If the ACL on mailbox does not grant the sender
the p right, the delivery fails. Specifies the authorization id of the sender. Defaults to "anonymous". Enables duplicate deliv-
ery suppression. This suppresses delivery of the message to a mailbox if a message with the same message-id (or resent-message-id)
is recorded as having already been delivered to the mailbox. Records the mailbox and message-id/resent-message-id of all successful
deliveries. Delivers a message even when the receiving mailbox is over its quota. Sets the system option or keyword flag on the
delivered message. Removes the duplicate delivery database of entries older than days.
DESCRIPTION
The deliver command reads a message from the standard input and delivers it to one or more IMAP mailboxes.
The deliver command reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf file. Depending on the setting of the reject8bit field in the
imapd.conf file, deliver either rejects messages with 8-bit-set characters in the headers or changes these characters to X.
