Make sure your machine knows it's to receive email for those domains - by putting the domains in that machines /etc/sendmail.cw file... 2. Make sure the domains have MX (mail exchange records) that point to your machine... 3. Setup sendmail to use 'virtual user tables' - which will let you direct all the mail sent to one domain to a particular local (or otherwise user),e.g. anything@panic.org could go to a user called 'tdl' on your machine, or say tdl@someother.domain.com This can get quite complicated - if you get stuck or want more info you can either look through the FreeBSD FAQ's etc. - or try www.sendmail.org... If you get really stuck / don't know where to start mail me... I'm out the office after tommorow - but I always (stupidly) pickup my mail remotely...
