A little bit further.

Cgiemail does manage to get the owner of the templatefile correctly, and 
passes this username with the -f parameter to sendmail.

However, sendmail appends the domainname of the box to that username, 
which leads to sendmail's error 'No such user here'.

Not only the username should be passed to sendmail, but the full 
mailaddress of that user should be passed with -f to sendmail.

Is there a call to get the full mailaddress (from p.e. the virtusertable) 
when I know the username?

Thank you
