Scalix Forums

I'm fairly new to Scalix and have come across a weird problem. Scalix is installed on a machine with the name linux.domain1.com but also host email for domain2. Whenever a person sends an email using the Web Access or through a desktop client, the from address is changed from user@domain2.com to user@linux.domain1.com.

I double checked in the SAC and the email address for the user is listed as user@domain2.com as well as the reply to address in the SWA. I have two mail nodes set up one for each domain and the users are assigned to the correct mailnode.

Anyone have any ideas? Since the address is being changed the recipient can not reply to the user's emails.

Thanks for your help,
jaime

You should start by checking your sendmail.cf (or sendmail.mc) file and see if your system is set to masqerade as domain1.com.

Thanks,

Hi,

We had this problem and we did some cleaning of /etc/hosts and it went fine. Domain masquerading was in fact disabled. SLES9.

Specificly IIRC the domain.com was set in the hosts file as the 127.0.0.1, and so for some reason Sendmail was re-writing the domain part.
