Actually, no...  On second thought, I don't think so.  The original
configuration should be fine, it *listens* to the localhost (so logwatch
can output to email), but not to the external interface (so no hackers
can spam it).  It can still *send* elsewhere without changing that.

But, yes, I had changed that part of sendmail, because I wanted to try
sending mail between each machine directly, while fault finding the
peculiarities of all of this.  The problem existed before customising
sendmail, and after.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
