The Configuration File

This section begins with an overview of the configuration file, describes its semantics in detail, and includes hints on writing a customized version. Admittedly, the file's syntax is not easy to read or write. A more important design criterion is that the syntax be easy to parse, because it must be parsed each time sendmail starts up.
