[ale] Sendmail makes me cry.

Hi guys,

I know this isn't a Linux question, per se, but I figured I'd ask.  I'm
working on (finishing up) setting up a server on which sendmail is the
MTA present, and I'm not really finding the information that I need to
get this particular situation setup; even though I'm sure it's done all
the time.

Essentially, the situation is this:  The server sits on an internal
network, running a bunch of network services.  It has an occasional need
to send mail outbound.  Now this works with some programs, but doesn't
with Bugzilla, because the envelope it's sending out by calling Sendmail
directly is www at machine.network, which just plain isn't working; the
mail is getting bounced back immediately (not even being accepted)
because the other side thinks that it's spam, since the envelope states
that it's not from a public network.

I know there is a way to "trick" sendmail into rewriting the from to
point to a legal, resolvable domain-name.  But, several Google queries
are not yielding a result, and after not having used sendmail myself for
a long time for anything but standard stuff, I can't remember how.
Reading through the documentation is worse then reading man pages, at
least from what I'm seeing at this point.  I'm just looking for
something that (preferably) I can "flip" in sendmail.cf, if at all
possible.  If I must do the m4 song and dance, I s'pose I will.

Any ideas?

	Thanks!
	Mike
