GWIA ip adress on outgoing message
Stéphane BULLOU
When i send a mail outside my company i see in the email the private ip
adress of my gwia and not the public one :
Received: from gwia.macompany.fr (unverified [192.168.0.202]) by
gwia.macompany.fr
How can i change that to my public ip adress ?
thank you

That's pretty weird. How (from where, and what client) are you sending
that message?

I'm using GroupWise Client (6.5 and now 7 from Windows and/or Linux)
i send the mail to pi...@oleane.net (it'a good adress for testing purpose
because it replies to you with all the information of the SMTP
transaction. It's inside this answer that i can see this ligne with the ip
adress of my GWIA.
Between my GWIA serveur (NW 6.5 sp5) and internet i've got two NAT with
firewall (border)
Perhap's if i put in sys:etc/hosts my public ip adress it will work ?

No. YOu can't influence that IP address at all, the receipient of a SMTP
transcation puts it there based on the IP it sees connecting to itself,
it doesn't get transferred in any way.
But anyways, something's seriously not right here. That snippet you
posted indicates your GWIA *received* that message from itself, or at
least from it's own IP address *VIA SMTP*. That's just not right, when
sending mail from a GW client, GWIA should *never* receive that mail via
SMTP as yours apparently does. So that whole "received: from" line you
posted simply shouldn't exist at all.
