Thx a lot. A postfix is transforming more and more to a sendmail.

hi,
i am using postfix and currently i can use any email address to specify FROM id.
so it is like faking any email address. smtp use can change his/her from email address. so i was wanting to change the from email address to the one with the same username.
for example: user live can send email from herry@domain.com but i want to restrict all user to use there own email address and own domains.
i want to restrict user live to send mail only from live@domain.com not any other like anyuser@anydomain.com
any help will highly be appreciated
greeting from Nepal,

Worked great – it’s now sending mail from the correct address. But postfix says my name is ‘root’ – any easy way to change that?

This was a big help, thank you!

Gagan, those instructions work for just one email (that was all I needed to do too.

Hey Vivek,

I would like something similar done, but only for one email address and not all the emails being sent out.

Any ideas?

Thanks this was helpful. I needed to be able to get my home server to forward mdadm alerts to my external email address through my isp’s smtp server

I get this strange message from smtp.com in /var/spool/postfix/defer
I have found this message
for EVERY mail attempted sent via Postfix:

Thanks this was helpful. I needed to be able to get my home server to forward mdadm alerts to my external email address through my isp’s smtp server (cox cable) and this was the missing piece.
