Hi:

I usually define my from address in pine using roles.  This allows you to
have a list of from addresses to choose from, nice if you have local users
you want to be able to send mail to.  Also, the domain thing is only any
good if your local and ISP user ID are the same, which they aren't for me
at least.

Also note that, for some ISPs at least, setting your from address will not
be sufficient, you will have to configure your mail transport agent to put
this address in other header fields so that your ISP thinks it came from
them.

Geoff.
