Well, okay, it *sort* of works, now; it seems mn-linux.org is not as picky as some other places. If I try to send through sourceforge to myself, it ferrets out the fact that I'm from localhost at localdomain. (yes, I know, even behind a firewall where no one can see I could be more creative, but changing hostnames after the computer is initialized is a pain, and I haven't figured out how to make X work once I've changed host names, since I then I have authority problems.) I'm trying using the sendmail.mc features MASQUERADE_AS and FEATURE('masquerade_envelope') but neither of these seem to do a thing. Any more advice?

Save it any way.
