Can't you modify your sendmail.cf file to use masquerading for those
servers?

Will masquerading rewrite it so that all email for a particular domain will go back out from the IP address of the domain instead of the server? We use an Ensim control panel that might overwrite the sendmail.cf file when I do an upgrade. I think they have made it so that it won't do that anymore though. I have never done masquerading, I will have to read up on it unless someone here can tell me what to add to the sendmail.mc file or the sendmail.cf file. It would be nice to have it in the sendmail.mc file so that whenever the sendmail.cf file is rebuilt, I won't have to edit it again.

Thanks
Steve
