<p style="font-family:sans-serif;font-size:12.8px">I had a
Xymon server need send email with a special sender email
address, because of mail server had limitation sender
must be company email domain (<a
href="mailto:xxxx@abc.com"

target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">xxxx@abc.com</a>)
if I need send email to external email such as gmail or
SMS service. I had added Xymon <a
href="mailto:XXXX@abc.com"
style="text-decoration-line:none;color:rgb(66,133,244)"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">XXXX@abc.com</a> in
Sendmail genericstable but not working. Also, I had
tried to rename the hostname from <a
href="http://xymonserver.localdomain.com/"
style="text-decoration-line:none;color:rgb(66,133,244)"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">xymonserver.localdomain.com</a> to <a

works, but we cannot change the hostname it will make
the other problem. </p>
