In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk If you want mail coming to the new domain, you probably need to use a domaintable. You will also have to build a new sendmail.cf file. The easiest way I know to do that is cd to /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf, copy generic.mc to a new ?.mc file and edit. Use the macros identified in the top of your current sendmail.cf and add: FEATURE(domaintable)dnl to the file. Run the new mc file through m4 to create a new cf file, create the domaintable and run it through makemap. Details are in /usr/src/usr.bin/sendmail/cf/README. -- Jay On Sat, 18 Jan 1997, Eporue - aCid produCtions wrote: -> ->Heya, i have a question about domains.
