*** This would be typically a question that has been answered by the
Sendmail HOWTO at Linux doc. Please read some of it - sendmail server
setup's are not for the faint of heart, especially not with all the spam and
viruse flying over the net - because you need to understand the basics and
then dive into it. I don't think the 3 mails posted here are enough to setup
a serious mail server which will NOT be hacked or used as an open relay
within minutes of it going on line. Take the security issue seriously before
putting sendmail on-line.
