Uncooked Data Containing hostname

I am sending uncoooked data but the hostname the other end are seeing is the Heavy Forwarder.

Is there anyway of sending the correct hostname?

How are you receiving data on Heavy Forwarder ? From UF ? If yes then have you set sendCookedData=false in outputs.conf on both UF and HF?
