Anonymous comment notification email sender

Although I set a valid email address in the s9y (version 1.4.1) configuration, comment notifications and opt-in mails are still sent with the sender address

anonymous@<hostname>.<hostname>

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hi!

This can happen due to the configuration of your local mailserver. Some PHP/CGI setups can override/force the mail sneder address to the actual username.

You might need to talk to your server provider to ask them how to configure the sendmail/mail interface to properly interpret sender names.

Hi Garvin,

Thanks, I'll do that.
