Hi Erich,

thanks, I was already poking around in the sendmail manuals.

IBM ships the file /usr/samples/tcpip/sendmail/cf/aixsample.mc with
AIX:

.....
# Sample AIX file
divert(0)dnl
OSTYPE(aixsample)dnl
FEATURE(genericstable)dnl
FEATURE(mailertable)dnl
FEATURE(virtusertable)dnl
FEATURE(domaintable)dnl
FEATURE(allmasquerade)dnl
FEATURE(promiscuous_relay)dnl
FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains)dnl
FEATURE(accept_unqualified_senders)dnl
FEATURE(no_default_msa)
DOMAIN(generic)dnl
define(`confSMTP_LOGIN_MSG', `$j Sendmail $b')
MAILER(local)dnl
MAILER(smtp)dnl
MAILER(uucp)

In the README they specify an exact order how to put things together
but MASQUERADE_AS or the other decalarations are not mentioned.

Which declaration(s) do I have to add and where?

Thanks

Pete
