Hello,

sendmail presently does not allow me to sent out email. The problem appears
to be the sender's email is: user@hostname.ISP.co.uk, when it should be
user@ISP.co.uk. I realise that this problem is a result of my using a dialup
PPP link.

Now all I have to do is recreate my /etc/sendmail.cf as per the FAQ
instructions (sections 8.18 and 8.19). According to these instructions once
I create my file foo.mc in the duirectory: /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf,
I am then supposed to do a "make foo.mc". So m4 converts foo.mc to a foo.cf
(so as to later replace /etc/sendmail.cf). Now here lies the problem.

When I do make foo.mc, I get the error:
    Makefile:32 ***missing separator.Stop
Looking at Makefile:32 it has the line: ".if defined(SENDMAIL_CF)"

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ghulam
