Nope - the MASQUERADE_AS line is definitely mydomain.com - the MUA is
mutt with a blank .muttrc file - does mutt stick in a From: line if it's
rc file is empty? The reason I have a blank .muttrc file by the way is
I am using this to test a web based interface - so I want to do as much
of the configuration in the sendmail end.
