Hi Pankaj,
can "from " address be configured for xymon alerts?i want to send xymon
alert mails from "user-eb54b1246875@xymon.invalid" address.But is is sending
alerts from xymon@`hostname`.There is no flag/variable that accepts for
from
address.I dont want to change my servers sendmail configuration.I want to
change configuraion from xymon side.
What is the reason you want to change it? Is it to have a more identifiable name? I wanted to have a more human-readable name for my sender and discovered the way to do this is to set the xymon user's name in /etc/passwd - e.g.:
xymon:x:500:500:Xymon (Brighton Data Centre):/home/xymon:/bin/bash
The address is still user-38bcd9e4df65@xymon.invalid but appears in my Inbox as from "Xymon (Brighton Data Centre)".
Regards,
Malcolm
