Re: [webmin-l] Usermin automatic reply not working

Update 2: Automatic Reply is still not working after setting Webmin > Usermin Configuration > Ports and Addresses > Web server hostname: "mailsrv.myoffice.org"
and in /etc/usermin/miniserv.conf
host=mailsrv.myoffice.org

Even logout and restarting Webmin & Usermin it will still write the correct hostname but wrong domainname into file "$HOME/autoreply.0.txt".

Since our Email-Server "mailsrv" has 2 separate Ethernet cards:
- one NIC for internal network: 192.168.x.0/24 (office.local) and
- one NIC for public network (myoffice.org)

the autoreply.0.txt has always the wrong internal network DNS name -> (office.local intead of myoffice.org)

So $HOME/autoreply.0.txt should read with TLD (here: mailsrv.myoffice.org)

From: "gilles" <[email protected]>

instead of wrong (internal domain mailsrv.office.localname for internal network 192.168.x.0/24):

From: "gilles" <[email protected]>

So the script which generates the "$HOME/autoreply.0.txt" file, extracts and writes the wrong domainname (office.local...) ?!
