when user1 send a mail to user2 locally i.e. To: us...@nameofmybox, user2
receive the mail from g.rob...@free.fr.
Is it possible that I edit my .muttrc so that:
1 When I send a mail to the outside the "From" is g.rob...@free.fr.
2 When I send mail locally (to user2) the "From" is us...@nameofmybox.
Look in the fine manual for "send-hook"
# - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
# Change settings based upon message recipient

# send-hook [!]<pattern> <command>

ie: send-hook @name_of_my_box <user1>@name_of_my_box
The problem arises when I send mails to users (locally)with the crontab.
A perhaps simpler solution would be to create a second version of your
~/.muttrc, maybe ~/.muttrc.cron, and call it when mailing from cron. Set
the desired "From" address in .muttrc.cron.
Thanks, with this method it works fine.
(with send-hook it does not work ... )
There is *much* very good explanatin in the fine manual :^).
I do not agree with you regarding send-hook ...
