Subject: mailutils: source address problem
Date: Sun, 29 Nov 2020 19:00:30 +0100
Package: mailutils
Version: 1:3.5-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I am using Debian 10 and I am bulding a server with a mail.someurl.com hostname and an MX entry for someurl.com.

I have setup

myorigin = /etc/mailname

and /etc/mailname has

someurl.com

as an entry.

If I test it with

echo "test"| mail [email protected]

(mail comes from the mailutils package)

I unfortunately still get the [email protected] source address.

Greetings,
Tobias
