<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>I am a newbie at Linux to say
the least. I took a box, loaded Fedora Core 7, and followed the
instructions to create a Hobbit box, so I have no idea how it sends out.
It uses sendmail, I guess. All I know is that it works BETTER than Big
Brother. Anyway, when an alert email shows up, the senders name is
“hobbit” and the boss man wants it to be specific to location so it would say
“Location1 Hobbit” instead. The details show it comes from hobbit

<p class=MsoNormal>Is there a way to change the way the alerts are sent out
from hobbit? I have a couple hobbit servers and I plan to add more in the
future so I want my emails to come from a customized name instead of
“hobbit”. Where do I go to change the sender’s name?<o:p></o:p></p>
