FYI:

With help from a decent tutorial for sendmail at
http://www.technoids.org/freebsdsendmailfaqs.html
and some detailed explanation from the bad book,
I got sendmail setup fine.

I found the tutorial to be a good initial walk
through, and the bat book was a great reference.

Thanks for all the suggestions,
Mike
