RE: SMTP AUTH and sender identification



The problem is that you can identify yourself as "me" ...  ie.. the smtp
auth username isn't usually a full email address or even necessarily
related. You would probably need another field in your database...

Subject: SMTP AUTH and sender identification

Hi,

I don't know exactly how ZMailer's SMTP AUTHentication works, but if I 
understand it right, if I authenticate correctly, smptserver allows me
to 
relay and notes my username in the corresponding Received: header... 
similarly to what whoson does.

What I need to do is to force the FROM (at least the envelope from)
based on 
the authentication (be it via SMTP AUTH, or even with whoson).

That is, if I authenticate as me@example.com, it allows me to relay BUT
ONLY 
IF I SAY
MAIL FROM:<me@example.com>

Is there a way to do that?

TIA.
