Change Name of Sender Email

[clahti]

Hello all:

I have zabbix 1.3.2 currently setup to send mail to my cellphone, this works fine. Currently when I receive the email the sending user looks similar to:

Zabbix Monitoring System <[email protected]>

Now I will be setting up zabbix on a host at bar.com and I would like to be able to change the name of the user so I can visually see what server this alert is actually coming from, something like:

Zabbix Foo <[email protected]> (the alert comes from foo.com server)
Zabbix Bar <[email protected]> (the alert comes from bar.com server)

I have searched the source code but I don't see anywhere where this is hard-coded, can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

/Christian

Answering my own question

Duh, all I had to do was change the unix username in /etc/passwd on the zabbix server host, all is well
