OK ... all you need to do is to set the DS flag in /etc/sendmail.cf to
your central hub.

That is

DS your.central.hub.fqdn

or

DS [hubs.ip.address.here] = note the Domain literal format [ip]

That's more than enough.

yes.

 If so could I have a look at your sendmail.cf or relevant m4 file?

i'd rather not.  before i switched to qmail, some (hopefully relevant) part
of it looked like:

DSsmtp:mail.germanynet.de

the smtp: protocol-designator was vital.  my system didn't work right
before it was in there.

Prefixing smtp: to the smarthost is unnecessary - must have been something
to do with your local configuration.

Or, use a nullclient configuration, and let m4 do the work...

E.g.,

VERSIONID(`a null client configuration')

OSTYPE(someOS)

FEATURE(nullclient, yourcentralhub.somewhere.com)

No particular need to recompile sendmail.cf, when the DS setting does the
trick, imho.

E.g.,

VERSIONID(`a null client configuration')

OSTYPE(someOS)

FEATURE(nullclient, yourcentralhub.somewhere.com)

mutt - sendmail - sendmail hub. sendmail.cf anyone?

2000-06-06 Thread nigel

Hi,

Does anyone use mutt with local sendmail, where the local sendmail is
configured to forward all mail to a central hub?

If so could I have a look at your sendmail.cf or relevant m4 file?

Thanks,
