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

Update 3: OK it seems to work but I have to login to Usermin at https://mailsrv.myoffice.org:20000 instead (of preferred internal/local https://mailsrv.office.local:20000)
then the automatic reply works and the file $HOME/autoreply.0.txt contains the correct "From:" with email address:
From: "gilles" <[email protected]>

But login in to the internal (192.168.x.0/24 zone) with https://mailsrv.office.local:20000, the file $HOME/autoreply.0.txt contains the wrong "From:" address (which bounces then back and email is never delivered)
From: "gilles" <[email protected]>

Also trying to set Webmin > Usermin Configuration > Ports and Addresses > Web server hostname: "mailsrv.myoffice.org" (instead of "Work out from browser")
gives an error:
"Failed to change address : An error occurring starting Usermin with the new address and port settings"

So it would be nice to set the Web Server hostname in /etc/usermin/miniserv.conf ... 
Is this possible ?
