[Nagiosplug-help] How to configure sender address

yeah, it would be based on your smtp client.. eg. sendmail takes your
hostname and the name of the user that nagios runs as.. I run it as admin
so I get admin at nagios.<domain> as the from address. This is pretty much
defined however you like... most people would have it set up to have
nagios@<domain> as the sender address I guess.. you can also change the
'nice' name by setting it in your /etc/passwd file to be something a
little more descriptive.. I have "Network Monitor" as the sender name
myself

Hope this made sense.
