Hobbit alerts - Changing the sender's name
Gentlemen,
Is there a way to change the way the alerts are sent out from hobbit? I have a couple hobbit servers and I plan to add more in the future so I want my emails to come from a customized name instead of "hobbit". Where do I go to change the sender's name?

How are you sending the alerts?? If it's via email on a Unix/Linux box, the mail system is probably picking up the user name from the GECOS field in /etc/passwd.

Are you looking to change the sender's email address or the hostname in the content of the message?
