- Hi *,
-
- Hopefully, this is the right group....
-
- We're running a lan of hosts with NFS. One of the hosts is assigned
- as mail server. Each host handles its outgoing mails but the incoming
- mails are recieved by the mail server.
-
- Now the question:
-
- When the incoming mail arrives, I assume it's handled by sendmail.cf
- first. But don't know which rule set is invoked first? Or, I'm just
- totally out of track. Or, sendmail simply gets the user name from
- the mail's destination addr and appends the mail.
-
- Thanks in advance for your answer/comment.
