hello,
there is perhaps a more saner option: qmail! (no i'm not into sales...)

Subject: Hiding my Solaris host in mail headers
I've currently got some consultants setting up my
Solaris box to enable me
to send mail to our company mail server for sending out
to the internet. At
the moment the way that they have configured it brings
up the host name
and the current user id in the mail headers before
passing to my mail server,
and obviously I would rather hide these. The headers
look like:
Received from user@localhost (8.8.8+Solaris/8.8.8) by
host.domain.com
where host.domain.com is the name assigned to the
Solaris box in it's
configuration.
The Solaris box is inside my firewall, and the SMTP
mail server is in my
"dmz", so I'd rather have the headers look like the
Solaris box is just another
PC mail client on my LAN (which do not add Received
headers themselves).
Can anyone give me pointers on the configuration of
sendmail (I believe this
is what they are using) on my Solaris box so that it
does not create headers
in the message before passing to my SMTP mail server? I
have no Unix
experience which is why consultants are setting it up
(and also because
they own the box, we rent it off them along with the
application software we
have running on the system).
Dan
