My current syntax is:

Omit Email To = 1
Use Email Subject = $system: $subject
#Use Email From = Author Email
Email Report General = hn-cms-dataopslog@cern.ch, cms-dataops@fnal.gov
I had to comment out the 'Use Email From' option because all forwarded
entries to the CMS HyperNews or Fermilab ListServer appeared to originate
from me (alstone@fnal.gov), even though other users were logged in and
saving the entries to the logbook. After commenting out this line, the
entries were properly credited when forwarded, although the
There are two admins defined in the [global] section, and "alstone" is
not the first name in the "Admin user" list.
Is this a bug, or have I used this option incorrectly?

Documentation says:
If Use Email From is present, it is always used. If not, the email address of the currently logged in user is used for the "From:" field. If no user is logged in, or the current user has not specified a email address in the password database, the setting of the option Default Email From is used for the "From:" field. Only if this option is not specified, a generic address ELOG@<hostname> is used, which might be rejected by the SMTP server however.
So if you write
Use Email From = me@some.where
then of course all emails have "me@some.where" in the From: field. If you want the email of the people logged in, you either remove this option (since it's the default anyhow), or you write explicitly
Use Email From = $user_email |
