sendmail configuration

Sun May 14 14:37:45 PDT 2006

You would do better to try the sendmail lists.

Rewriting addresses is not a trivial configuration issue.  While you have 
the generics enabled this is effected by the masquerading functions.

Most complex sendmail configurations are done through the proper 
configuration of the cascading rules.  Hence why you will get better 
results with the sendmail lists.
