It has been 2 days now trying to find a solution for this problem. Recently my local ISP changed their security settings and now emails generate from PHP scripts is being rejected due header "Received: (from apache@localhost)".
Searching various articles and forums i have come to know that webserver/computer cannot find its own name (so it comes out
as "localhost") when mails are being sent. I have every solution mentioned on the forums but still could not change the "localhost" part to my server name.
1. hostname at /etc/hosts is ok.
2. have added MASQUERADE_AS... to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc...
3. /etc/sysconfig/network is ok.
I have applied all what is said on this thread [experts-exchange.com...] but still not change.
I am now thinking that this is a apache setting problem as I can change what is before 'localhost' by editing the httpd.conf but cannot change the 'localhost' to my actual 'domain.server.com' name.
Has any one faced this problem or have a clue how to change let my server know it's actual name instead of 'localhost'.

have you tried just setting extra mail headers when using the mail function?
Any help ...advice would be appreciated.
