  14. I want my sendmail to automatically change a certain host's mail
  15. "from" address to a set of ALIASES.  This host is a Banyan SMTP
  16. gateway way which doesn't follow all of RFC822.  I would like the
  17. originator's address to be changed to the reverse of their alias.  Can
  18. this be done by just modifing the sendmail.cf? or would I have to
  19. hack the sendmail program?
  20.  
  21. Basically, I current have all of my Banyan SMTP gateway mail be
  22. directed to an UNIX box so that changing the sendmail at that UNIX box
  23. shouldn't be too difficult.
