Subject: [386BSD] sendmail.cf hack, establish "uucp only" connection
Summary: uucp only connection to a relay host
Keywords: sendmail.cf
Message-ID: <110@knobel.GUN.de>

Hello !
After hours of trying out different sendmail configuration options
I found a way to tell sendmail to send mail (!local) to a mail host
or relay host specified with the define DR.
The sendmail.cf as being shipped with 386bsd 0.1 didn't work for me.
Internet adresses via the Muucp mailer were treated as local
addresses which couldn't be resolved.
Building a new sendmail.cf from scratch using m4
(see /usr/src/usr.sbin/sendmail/cf/cf/uucpproto.mc) didn't work
properly, too.
The reason is, that in the machine dependend part of rule zero
(end of sendmail.cf) a line is missing to tell sendmail to send
internet mail to a formerly specified relay host
before finally trying to resolve the mail locally.
Below is my sendmail.cf file. Changed or important lines are marked
with ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hope it's usefull.
BTW: use it on your own risk ...
Bye
Andreas Klemm
