Description of problem: Configuring Sendmail Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhl-rg(EN)-8.0-Print-RHI (2002-08-14T22:29-0400)) Expected results: Please include more detailed information about configuring Sendmail (editing the sendmail.mc file) for machines that aren't members of an official domain. The problem reffers to using such a Linux machine for: - sending e-mail for all users defined in /etc/password, with a valid From: and Reply-To: address (both header & envelope) - explaining how to correctly configure sendmail (headers & envelope) if one is defined as "johndoe" on a machine wihout an official domain and has a mailbox "jdoe" located at the ISP Some programs, like FaxMail (included in older versions of Red Hat Linux), return an error if a fax-by-mail is sent from an e-mail address that has no valid SMTP envelope.

I am not sure I understand what you want here. 1> You want to configure sendmail on a host that is not part of a official domain? Explain what you mean by this. Do you mean your ISP's domain? 2> You want to send emails for folks in /etc/password w/o a domain name? 3> You want to configure sendmail to talk to an ISP mail server and map a particular ISP user to local accounts? This seems like something that is an edge case configuration. Most mail clients can handle this sort of thing. Anyway, verify that I understand what you are asking and we'll go from there. Thanks, Johnray
Still waiting on information. In the mean time, I am transferring this to the new maintainer. J
