Smail configuration, rewriting from line



I configured smail using smailconfig using the following options:

  ail generated on this system will have `bln.de' used
  as the host part (after the @) in the From: field and similar places.

  Message-ID's, Received lines, etc. will use the system's canonical
  hostname, which is currently set to marvin.bln.de.

  The following hostname(s) will be recognised as referring to this system:
   marvin.bln.de, bln.de

  Mail for postmaster, root, etc. will be sent to root.

  Local mail is delivered.

  Outbound remote mail is sent to mail.combox.de
  via SMTP and TCP/IP (using any MX records in the DNS).

Everything works fine so far, if not online all external mail is
queued and if online the mail are sent immediatly.

Now I look for a way to rewrite my from line using smail.  Without any
interaction it would generate torsten@bln.de which is obviously wrong
(as my really pop account is called Torsten.Hilbrich@bln.de).

Does smail support this?

I already tried the alias mechanism which is the other way round.
Unfortunatly I couldn't find further information in the smail
documentation or the smail FAQ.

Thanks for your help,

        Torsten
