I recently set up a sendmail+Mailman installation to host
mail lists running under a separate domain name.

After some serious reading of the "bat book," I used the technique
given on page 183, article 4.8.18, for limited_masquerade, which
works---but. The "but" is that masquerade_envelope for the original
domain no longer works for the original domain, and I need to be able
to send mail from that machine with the nodename removed from the
envelope.

I tried looking at the FAQ. Article 3.1.7 has a link to "virtual
hosting" that goes to "not found." So if there's any further
discussion of this on the sendmail web site, I can't find it.

Installation: sendmail 8.13.6+Sun, Solaris 9 9/05, Sun Ultra 10

What's in my main.mc file right now is:

MASQUERADE_AS(`mydomain.net')dnl
FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')dnl
FEATURE(`limited_masquerade')dnl
LOCAL_DOMAIN(`mydomain.net otherdomain.com')dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`mydomain.net')dnl

local-domain-names has mydomain.net and otherdomain.com

Is there an easy way to get node.mydomain.net stripped to mydomain.net
in mail going out from the host box? I want to set up mail lists
using both domains and to be able to send separate mail from the box
without the node identity in the envelope.

MASQUERADE_DOMAIN should list all *host* names that should
be masqueraded. For a single host:
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`hostname.mydomain.net')dnl
If you want to masquerade more host names you should list
them all, separated by spaces.

If you want to masquerade *all* hosts in your domain:
FEATURE(`masquerade_entire_domain')dnl
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(`mydomain.net')dnl
