Hi,
I have a dsl with an email acount : dsl_user123@dsl.isp.com. I use fetchmail to pop it and depose to my gateway, to user joe. With dyndns, I can send mail to joe@mydom.dyndns.org.
How do I send mail out with the return address as dsl_user123@dsl.isp.com?
Thanks

Which mail client do you use? I use mutt and it has an option to set the default email sender address.

Yup, mutt's good for this, but any client should allow you to set this address.

Hi,

Thanks for the clues. I am embarrassed to see how simple the solution was. I used pine and that wasn't easy to set. After reading cryptic--to me--doc, I am finally able to set it via SETUP ->Config->customized-hdrs with:Reply-To:$REPLYTO, and REPLYTO is an env vars with dsl_user@dsl.isp.com.

Mozilla mail is much simpler;)
Anyway, without these clues I would continues to comb postfix, pine,aliases config files...
