I have two questions maybe someone could answer for me. 1. where does the "define" statement go in the sendmail.cf file? I have tried several places where I thought it might be appropriate and have always had a compile error when that statement was encountered. 2. should "domain" in Steve's statement be a literal, or should I put my desired domain name there? Chuck 'PS - Please be careful when replying - my return address is poorly formed right now.
