RE: [SLUG] Sendmail with Outgoing Addresses

Yep, everything is working beautifully..

I have a /etc/passwd user of "blah" and they email out as
admin@nospam.hexidecimal.com.au and that works. Incoming also aliases back to the
correct user.

Fantastic. Thanks all again..

OK I did that and now it works.

I had added the sendmail-cf-3.15-blahblah.rpm and did the m4
/etc/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf and works fine.

Next problem was that after creating the new domains files etc., I had a
another problem which required to change a line added by m4 from:
Kgenerics dbm /etc/mail/genericstable
to:
Kgenerics hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable

and sendmail started fine.. Let see if it now works..

Thanks guys for the info..

Did you install the sendmail-cf rpm?  You also need to preload cf.m4.  
From /usr/lib/sendmail-cf/README:

  Configuration files are contained in the subdirectory "cf", with a
  suffix ".mc".  They must be run through "m4" to produce a ".cf" file.
  You must pre-load "cf.m4":

          m4 ${CFDIR}/m4/cf.m4 config.mc > config.cf

  where ${CFDIR} is the root of the cf directory and config.mc is the
  name of your configuration file.

Install the sendmail-cf rpm and run m4 as detailed above.  No need to
rebuild from source.
