Quick question:

I'm using my FreeBSD pc as a uucp mail server, mail can come in fine, but
going out it complains that it does not know the name server can't find
the machine.

(the pc is not on the internet, but rather dialing out with uucp)

what is the rule/line in sendmail.cf that lets sendmail 'trust' the
machine at the other end of the uucp call for resolving the names.

-roy

p.s. it would be quite nice if there was an example sendmail.cf file with
the gnu/uucp source.
