I am using the default install of sendmail with my linux distribution (RH
7.2) It is sending out alerts as "user-a6962c9620be@xymon.invalid. I am getting
tired of explaining to every new person what Hobbit is (even though I really
like showing them!) I would like to have the alerts go out as something like
"user-2f5238309c60@xymon.invalid Can anyone tell me if there is a simple
way to change the name these alerts go out as? 

Thanks

btw..I am not a sendmail wizardso simple is good.

I had so much trouble with sendmail I switched to EXIM. The help file
gave explicit instructions for changing this. 10 minutes total.
