Hey all,

I'm using sendmail 8.12, and while a quick google search shows that
it's very easily possible to separate mail into separate queuegroups, I
can't seem to find any serious documentation on what it takes to do
this. There's a few select mentions of it in
http://www.sendmail.org/doc/sendmail.../doc/op/op.pdf, but nothing
ful.

Specifically, the only docs I can easily find on sendmail.org say that
it's possible to separate mail based on recipient domain, but my goal
here is actually to simply strip out mailer-daemon replies and queue
them for a very short time.

http://www.sendmail.org/m4/queue_groups.html doesn't really
anything.

This thread looks promising:

but I feel really scared of editing sendmail.cf directly. Is there a
hack.m4 for this?

The thread doesn't suggest editing sendmail.cf directly - you should put
those rules in a LOCAL_RULESETS section in your .mc file. Of course you
can cause just as much breakage that way as by editing sendmail.cf
directly, but at least it's maintainable (i.e. the rules don't get blown
away when you regenerate sendmail.cf from .mc, nor left behind when you
upgrade).
