This is how i did it:


This was done simply but adding the following ruleset to my sendmail.cf

##################################################
###  Ruleset 1 -- Sender Field Pre-rewriting   ###
##################################################
S1
Ruser                                   otheruser<@domain.name>
Ruser<@localhost.domain.name.>          otheruser<@domain.name>


But you have to remember that the spaces from "Ruser to otheruser" has ti
be <TABS> and not <SPACES>.

I hope you find this useful....
