Yes, I was reading up on how to do this, but I am doing something wrong.
I have the following in my sendmail.mc file and after restarting
sendmail, I can only connect to the sendmail server from localhost. I
have tried with and without the first 'define' line shown here as I had
already placed the POP lines in my sendmail.cf file and they were
working. They look the same in my sendmail.cf file that works compared
to the one generated by make. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong? I
put all this at the bottom of the sendmail.mc file.
define(`confDONT_BLAME_SENDMAIL',`forwardfileingroupwritabledirpath')dnl
