Hi,

I came across a "feature" in sendmail where a user can send a mail message
out to others under a ficticious name. Our domain is "beaver.edu" so if
a student types "telnet beaver.edu 25" they can send a message to anyone
under any name they want, and the recepiant will have no idea from whom the
message is. Is there a way to prevent
this ?

Thanks.
