Host requires new sendmail settings
Hello Links 2 Pro's,
i got a tricky issue right now with my silly hosting company (paid, not free).

They simply changed something with their sendmail settings server side (without greatly bothering to let the clients know before hand that is).

So, the hosts (outsourced to Russia) support tells me fragmentally:
FROM field of the letter must contain mailbox which is maintained by
your hosting server. (what???)


I assume "letter" means the confirmation email and / or the email sent to my own mailbox telling me that a new submission is in.
(i have disabled the collection of submitters email addresses so can not send out any mass emails)
"mailbox which is maintained by your hosting server" probably means my domain name email???

But FROM field???
(the submission form has no FROM field, the confirmation emails i do not even know what script sends those)

Does anyone of you Links2 users have experienced a similar situation with a host and knows where what would need to be changed to have sendmail working for Links 2 again???

Thanks for info
