- Have a look at ftp.win.tue.nl:/pub/unix/domain1.54.sh.Z
-
- This shell script, which was written by Wietse Venema (wswietse@win.tue.nl),
- asks you some simple questions, and generates a fairly good sendmail.cf for you.
-
- I also had to change /etc/mail/mailx.rc to 'set sendmail=/usr/ucblib/sendmail'
-
- Finally, in /bin,, lmail and rmail are hard-linked to one another, and the
- same is true for mail and mailx. With this, change the M entries in
- sendmail.cf to read:
-
- Mlocal, P=/bin/rmail, F=lsDFMmnP, S=10, R=20, A=rmail $u
- Mprog, P=/bin/sh, F=lsDFMeuP, S=10, R=20, A=sh -c $u
-
- If you want, I can mail you my sendmail.cf file.
-
- Hope this helps,
-
