Email Modifications to stop Spammers.

I was wondering if there is a way you can modify the email system to not use nobody@server.com. I had a hacker get on my system and was spamming. This was not a Dolphin customer either. Just a spammer that set up an account and uploaded a mailing script.

However, because of the attack we were forced to take some security measures and now emails from greetings and password authentications are not being sent because they are being sent as "nobody" We had to block this function.

Dolphin Script needs to provide a choice between SMTP and php mail in Admin Area so Administrator can set up account to work with SMTP email address instead of PhpMail.

Please respond.
Thank you

Well, it is prety interesting how have you got hacked. Can you post more details on this?

But there should be no any security holes, since Dolphin has been scanned by "Scan alert" for one of our customers and now has "Hacker Safe" label on their site.

If you are not confident to post the details here. Please PM them to me.
