image\overbutt.gifSetting the default user name for the mail server

You can set the default name that the mail server uses for incoming email messages that do not have a user name. You must specify a valid user in the defaulthost configuration file. For example, assume the domain name that your mail server uses is myaddress.com. Next, assume you specify "Frankj" in the defaulthost configuration file. If your mail server receives an email message addressed to myaddress.com, then the email message is sent to Frankj@ myaddress.com.

To set the default user name for the mail server

1. Click Application Starter, Utilities, Text Editor.

2. Type the following into the Text Editor:

Frankj

3. Save the file as /var/qmail/control/defaulthost.
