Assuming you're using sendmail 8.8.something, see the README file in the `cf' subdirectory of the sendmail source tree. You want the stuff on host masquerading. In particular, see the section entitled "MASQUERADING AND RELAYING", and read the paragraphs describing "allmasquerade", "limited_masquerade", and "masquerade_entire_domain" in the "FEATURE" section. See http://www.sendmail.org/ for pointers to other docs and sources of help. ----- Brian Clapper, bmc@WillsCreek.COM, http://WWW.WillsCreek.COM/ Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. -- Martin Luther King, Jr.
