Read in /usr/src/contrib/sendmail/cf/README about the feature called
FEATURE(genericstable).

I have in my sendmail.mc file the line:

	FEATURE(`genericstable', `hash -o /etc/mail/genericstable')dnl

in my /etc/mail/genericstable:

	charon		keramida@ceid.upatras.gr

and after running:

	root@hades# cd /etc/mail
	root@hades# makemap hash genericstable < genericstable
	root@hades# killall -hup sendmail

all outgoing mail from charon@localhost gets rewritten to indicate that
it originated from keramida@ceid.upatras.gr :)

In short, genericstable is the reverse of virtusertable, unless I've got
it all wrong here -- in which case, someone correct me please.
