Pkg exim4 users - Feb 2008 - change senders email address

hello everyone

I''m brand new to exim so please bear with me

I''ve got a web site that sends forms using python

Exim4 came with my Ubuntu install.

All I want to do is relay all mail from the web site on the local  
machine to our mail server that has been configured to accept mail  
from this machine and pass it on.

I"ve been reading through the documents but I must be doing something  
wrong.

sudo dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config

and entered manually all the details, exim has restarted but I''m  
getting error messages about the sending email address.

I need to change the sending email address to an email address that is  
a valid one on our system, can someone tell me how to do that.

It''s hitting my smarthost, just need to change the senders address  
name, just the first bit.

Thanks in advance

You''re searching for /etc/email-addresses, this sets the snders for the
outgoing mail.
