Hi all, Is it possible to change the behaviour as explained above? My user finds it annoying that it sends out emails in that way. I am Using WHM 11.48.4 (build4) Have the experimental function enabled to rewrite From: header to match actual sender.

  Hello, I think you are sending mail through php scripts using the php mail function and due to server is sending all mail through user@hostname. You need to use SMTP authentication in your script instead of php mail function

  Hi, yes I was afraid for such answer, the problem is that many different websites having same issue, WordPress, TYPO3 and many others, I was hoping for a more elegant solution. WP is very difficult to do for the average user as there is no plug-in able to fix it, so you need to hard-code/modify the php mail script. Thanks for your reply anyway.

  Hello, If your user are sending these mail through contact form, Then you can use CONTACT FORM 7 plugin for word-press. With this plugin setting you can use SMTP function instead of php mails.

  I found this in one of my old documents... In exim under advanced settings, it rewrites it. # Set return-path sender to local domain instead of hostname. untrusted_set_sender = *@+local_domains

  Hello :) The best way to solve this issue is to require your users to utilize SMTP authentication when sending out emails. However, you are welcome to implement that custom Exim entry and let us know the outcome. Thank you.
