Lines: 20 Never hack sendmail.cf again! For all the BSD sites using UUCP for mail connectivity. You may have noticed that the BSD sendmail.cf is kind of unfriendly towards UUCP. I've been unable to make it behave, so I finally put smail 2.5 on my BSD system. The cut of smail I'm using is now in my directory (~pds) on ref.tfs.com. It's set up for ALWAYS routing, so make sure all your UUCP neighbors are in your paths file. I didn't include a copy of pathalias, since I generally use a dumb paths file. I see no reason the stock pathalias won't work. If you're using both SMTP and UUCP, I've included a channel router that you can use to route mail for specified systems to sendmail. -- Peter da Silva. <peter@sugar.neosoft.com>. `-_-' Oletko halannut suttasi tänään?
