You should probably give us some more details about what you're trying to do. There's a bunch of stuff on the sendmail site but, IMHO, it assumes a lot of knowledge. For simple stuff there's HOWTOs. Mandrake and maybe some other distros now use postfix, which is somewhat simpler, at least in having a slightly less opaque configuration language. There are some qmail fans on this list. I looked at it and found that (1) the docs seemed to assume you were migrating from sendmail and already understood that [doesn't anyone get tired of explaining their mailers' functions in terms of what sendmail does?] and (2) it wants to splatter all kindsa files in all kindsa non-standard places. YMMV. Unless you're doing something real exciting, you PROBABLY don't want sendmail.... r
