Subject: [wellylug] mailx - From address


Hi,

When I send mail using the 'mail' command (from package mailx) it adds a

>From address to the outgoing email. Where is it getting this address
from? 
I'd like to change it because I am in the process of changing ISPs.

I can't find it in /etc/exim/exim.conf (but I did change route_list in 
there to point to my new SMTP server).
