You should consider using postfix or qmail as alternatives. The legendary sendmail config alone is one reason.

Thanks very much for the replys.

I have gotten a pretty good grasp on the sendmail.cf file now. I have just one question

What is the following lefthand rule asking

R<@>

PS. I am not sure if the angle brackets came up or not, if they did not, then this is what I typed

R followed immideatly by a left arrow, followed by the at symbol, followed by a right arrow.

Thanks.
