Hi,
sorry, if this question was posted and answered over and over again; I did google for it quite heavily and didn't find a glue:
- mediawiki soft: version 1.5.5 - server soft: Mac OS 10.4.4 server
The users using my experimental wiki http://wiki.ltett.lu are getting password reminders or other e-mail notifications with a wrong "mail from" / reply-to e-mail address, www@comett.ltettdomain.ltett.lu, though the localsettings.php file has got the two lines $wgEmergencyContact = "alex@olinger.net"; $wgPasswordSender = "alex@olinger.net";
This is causing problems, as the domain name used isn't technically correct and mail got rejected by some mail servers checking the domain name in the "mail from" SMTP command. I want to put my own e-mail address in the mails sent from the mediawiki soft.
Any ideas how this could be set up correctly?
Best regards,
Alex

A valid digital signature means essentially two things:
- You can trust the IDENTITY of the sender: Yes, it's really Alex Olinger who send you this message!
- The INTEGRITY of the message is guaranteed: Nobody or nothing altered the content of the message after if it left my computer.
Unfortunately some mail applications, especially webmail, cannot handle digital signatures. +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+- +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
