sendmail configuration file
edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and regenerate the
sendmail.cf file.. but i dont know which option go
with the sendmail.mc
i am not a sendmail expert
so sendmail gurus please comment.
well i have a question now
can we edit the
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf
and add Dj$w.{your-domain}..
to avoid sendmail hanging for a while when booting.. is that the right way.. ?

This is called hi-jacking a thread Anish, and frowned upon. You need to start a new thread if you want to ask a question.
In regards to your question, yes you can edit the sendmail.cf.
In regards to your other question - no, it is not the generally accepted way.
Have a look at sendmail.org for configuration examples to see what you should be using, but if you don't understand, let me know (in a new thread!!!), and I will try to help you out further.
