... Ever tried to read the official documentation for Sendmail? Yes. It is good.
Yes, it's wonderful... it's also mostly impenetrable to people who aren't already familiar with how sendmail and *nix work. Docs like this (http://www.sendmail.org/m4/masquerading.html) are very clear and concise for experienced admins. A beginner could read this ten times and still not know where/how these settings are supposed to be made or how to have sendmail recognize the changes. If you administer sendmail, you take several steps for granted and the docs reflect this. This is very tough stuff for beginners to get a handle on. Dylan
