Well, I have found out the problem now. Checking the /usr/local/tmda-1.0.3/templates directory, I find that tmda uses the following line for the sender address:
From.US-ASCII: "%(FULLNAME)s" <%(recipient_address)s> So checking the online docs for the FULLNAME configuration variable tells me: FULLNAME Your full name. Example: FULLNAME = "John Doe" Default comes from your environment or the password file. So setting this variable in the tmda config file like this: FULLNAME = "Keith Roberts" has fixed the problem. I guess that now I'm running FC6, it was somehow is picking up the wrong username without this variable being set up properly.
