Please advise about documentation to do this. To the Bat book, Robin! Sendmail, 3rd Ed.; Bryan Costales and Eric Allman; O'Reilly and Associates; 2002; ISBN 1-56592-839-3 If you really want to get sendmail configuration right, this book tells you everything you need to know. On the other hand, the sendmail configuration out of the box on FreeBSD is pretty much relay-proof, and it will serve adequately a large number of not too complex sites with relatively minor tweaks. There's a lot of hints and tips on http://www.sendmail.org/, although they can be confusing to the beginner because some of the recipes there apply to older versions of sendmail and either need modifying or have been absorbed into the standard configuration files for more recent versions.
