Can Zimbra Modify email headers (FROM:)?

[strafford]

Hi

How can I modify the headers that Zimbra sends? Here is my setup:

-have a machine that does not have a FQDN so its mailserv.company.local.
-email comes via individual POP accounts at our ISP

Problem is, mail headers show mail from mailserv.company.local, but I would like it to be mailserv.ourdomain.com. How can I do this? I have not been able to find answers by searching forum or google.

Update: I tried domain masquerade as per this post but that doesn't change the from headers:

Do I have to rename the machine? If so, do I have to have a real/FQDN or can I use a bogus sub-domain (i.e. if our domain is company.com, can I use mail.company.com even though that is not registered/setup)?

What is your domain hosted on server mailserv.company.local or mailserv.company.com ?

[strafford]

Currently mailserv.company.local is the server and it does not have a domain, just an IP.

So u want to create domain with mailserv.company.com and users in it ? is this wat u are trying to achieve ?

[strafford]

I can setup a domain no problem. I can add users, etc. My problem is with the email headers. They still say mail.company.local no matter what I try (Canonical name, masquerade, etc.) and are getting rejected by spam filters, etc.

See below for an example of what the headers would look like if we are using company.com (gmail accepts the mail so I am able to see the headers, but most others don't):

[bdial]

it's probably that your server is identifying itself to remote servers as mail.company.local when it says HELO

try this

zmprov mcf zimbraMtaMyHostname mail.company.com

then restart the zimbra mta (or all of zimbra to be sure)

Ok, much closer. Still have some instances of mail.company.local. See below.

Ok. So the headers look pretty good now after changing the mta hostname (Thanks bdial). But since my machine name is a bogus domain (mail.company.local) I can't send email from user to user (errors in logs about not finding domain even though mail.company.local is in my /etc/hosts file)

Any ideas?

 (Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=mail.company.local type=A: Host not found)
