Check out the EXCELLENT example in the Netbsd guide (see the link at
www.netbsd.org/Documentation). It remaps the LOCAL user to a user from
your mailservice. Like your login name on your machine in your C-class
IP is 'banzai' and you send mail from banzai then you can have an entry
that remaps 'banzai@banzai.net' (where banzai.net is your 'resolved'
machine name in your c class net) to my-email-account@my-provider.com when
resending the thing so your email service provider can resolve the from
header part and marks it as a valid message. But, as I said, check out the
entry in the excellent (!) NetBSD guide.
