Re: [cobalt-users] Web Server Config



Actually, I found the answer I was looking for. You can edit the FP Server Extension Config file and insert one line in the file. Here are the specifics:

file to edit:
/usr/local/frontpage/version4.0/frontpg.cnf

Line to insert:
MailSender:me@xxxxxxxxxxxx

Obviously "me@xxxxxxxxxxxx" can be replaced with an address more appropriate to you. Keep in mind all who are using FrontPage forms will now see this address, so don't get to cute. :-)

More info on this file can be found here:

Hi Ron,

It's ugly, but the FP form is always going to show that as the "from"
address.  You can change it to say something like "Web Server" as the name
and the return address will be httpd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx by using vipw and
editing the line where you see the user httpd.  In all cases, have the users
properly create their Front Page forms by going into the advanced options
and making sure the reply-to address is set by the form - a field in the
form where the user enters his email address.

I hope that helps,
Beth
