- NEW SENDMAIL CONFIGURATION FILES
-
- Eric Allman <eric@CS.Berkeley.EDU>
-
- @(#)README 8.124 (Berkeley) 9/23/97
-
-
-This document describes the sendmail configuration files being used
-at Berkeley. These use features in the new (R8) sendmail; they will
-not work on other versions.
-
-These configuration files are probably not as general as previous
-versions, and don't handle as many of the weird cases automagically.
-I was able to simplify them for two reasons. First, the network
-has become more consistent -- for example, at this point, everyone
-on the internet is supposed to be running a name server, so hacks to
-handle NIC-registered hosts can go away. Second, I assumed that a
-subdomain would be running SMTP internally -- UUCP is presumed to be
-a long-haul protocol. I realize that this is not universal, but it
-does describe the vast majority of sites with which I am familiar,
-including those outside the US.
-
-Of course, the downside of this is that if you do live in a weird
-world, things are going to get weirder for you. I'm sorry about that,
-but at the time we at Berkeley had a problem, and it seemed like the
-right thing to do.
-
-This package requires a post-V7 version of m4; if you are running the
-4.2bsd, SysV.2, or 7th Edition version, I suggest finding a friend with
-a newer version. You can m4-expand on their system, then run locally.
-SunOS's /usr/5bin/m4 or BSD-Net/2's m4 both work. GNU m4 version 1.1
-or later also works. Unfortunately, I'm told that the M4 on BSDI 1.0
-doesn't work -- you'll have to use a Net/2 or GNU version. GNU m4 is
-available from ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/m4-1.4.tar.gz (check for
-the latest version). EXCEPTIONS: DEC's m4 on Digital UNIX 4.x is broken
-(3.x is fine). Use GNU m4 on this platform.
-
-IF YOU DON'T HAVE A BERKELEY MAKE, don't despair! Just run
-"m4 ../m4/cf.m4 foo.mc > foo.cf" -- that should be all you need.
-There is also a fairly crude (but functional) Makefile.dist that works
-on the old version of make.
-
-To get started, you may want to look at tcpproto.mc (for TCP-only
-sites), uucpproto.mc (for UUCP-only sites), and clientproto.mc (for
-clusters of clients using a single mail host). Others are versions
-that we use at Berkeley, although not all are in current use. For
-example, ucbarpa has gone away, but I've left ucbarpa.mc in because
-it demonstrates some interesting techniques.
-
-I'm not pretending that this README describes everything that these
-configuration files can do; clever people can probably tweak them
-to great effect. But it should get you started.
-
-*******************************************************************
-*** BE SURE YOU CUSTOMIZE THESE FILES! They have some ***
-*** Berkeley-specific assumptions built in, such as the name ***
-*** of our UUCP-relay. You'll want to create your own domain ***
-*** description, and use that in place of domain/Berkeley.m4. ***
-*******************************************************************

-+--------------------------+
-| INTRODUCTION AND EXAMPLE |
-+--------------------------+
-
-Configuration files are contained in the subdirectory "cf", with a
-suffix ".mc". They must be run through "m4" to produce a ".cf" file.
-You must pre-load "cf.m4":
-
- m4 ${CFDIR}/m4/cf.m4 config.mc > config.cf
-
-where ${CFDIR} is the root of the cf directory and config.mc is the
-name of your configuration file. If you are running a version of M4
-that understands the __file__ builtin (versions of GNU m4 >= 0.75 do
-this, but the versions distributed with 4.4BSD and derivatives do not)
-or the -I flag (ditto), then ${CFDIR} can be in an arbitrary directory.
-For "traditional" versions, ${CFDIR} ***MUST*** be "..", or you MUST
-use -D_CF_DIR_=/path/to/cf/dir/ -- note the trailing slash! For example:
-
- m4 -D_CF_DIR_=${CFDIR}/ ${CFDIR}/m4/cf.m4 config.mc > config.cf
-
-Let's examine a typical .mc file:

-
-The divert(-1) will delete the crud in the resulting output file.
-The copyright notice can be replaced by whatever your lawyers require;
-our lawyers require the one that I've included in my files. A copyleft
-is a copyright by another name. The divert(0) restores regular output.
-
- VERSIONID(`<SCCS or RCS version id>')
-
-VERSIONID is a macro that stuffs the version information into the
-resulting file. We use SCCS; you could use RCS, something else, or
-omit it completely. This is not the same as the version id included
-in SMTP greeting messages -- this is defined in m4/version.m4.
-
- OSTYPE(hpux9)dnl
-
-You must specify an OSTYPE to properly configure things such as the
-pathname of the help and status files, the flags needed for the local
-mailer, and other important things. If you omit it, you will get an
-error when you try to build the configuration. Look at the ostype
-directory for the list of known operating system types.
-
- DOMAIN(CS.Berkeley.EDU)dnl
-
-This example is specific to the Computer Science Division at Berkeley.
-You can use "DOMAIN(generic)" to get a sufficiently bland definition
-that may well work for you, or you can create a customized domain
-definition appropriate for your environment.
-
- MAILER(local)
- MAILER(smtp)
-
-These describe the mailers used at the default CS site site. The
-local mailer is always included automatically. Beware: MAILER
-declarations should always be at the end of the configuration file,
-and MAILER(smtp) should always precede MAILER(uucp). The general
-rules are that the order should be:
-
- VERSIONID
- OSTYPE
- DOMAIN
- FEATURE
- local macro definitions
- MAILER
- LOCAL_RULESET_*
-
-
-+----------------------------+
-| A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO M4 |
-+----------------------------+
-
-Sendmail uses the M4 macro processor to ``compile'' the configuration
-files. The most important thing to know is that M4 is stream-based,
-that is, it doesn't understand about lines. For this reason, in some
-places you may see the word ``dnl'', which standards for ``delete
-through newline''; essentially, it deletes all characters starting
-at the ``dnl'' up to and including the next newline character. In
-most cases sendmail uses this only to avoid lots of unnecessary
-blank lines in the output.
-
-Other important directives are define(A, B) which defines the macro
-``A'' to have value ``B''. Macros are expanded as they are read, so
-one normally quotes both values to prevent expansion. For example,
-
- define(`SMART_HOST', `smart.foo.com')
-
-One word of warning: M4 macros are expanded even in lines that appear
-to be comments. For example, if you have
-
- # See FEATURE(foo) above
-
-it will not do what you expect, because the FEATURE(foo) will be
-expanded. This also applies to
-
- # And then define the $X macro to be the return address
-
-because ``define'' is an M4 keyword. If you want to use them, surround
-them with directed quotes, `like this'.
-
-
-+--------+
-| OSTYPE |
-+--------+
-
-You MUST define an operating system environment, or the configuration
-file build will puke. There are several environments available; look
-at the "ostype" directory for the current list. This macro changes
-things like the location of the alias file and queue directory. Some
-of these files are identical to one another.
-
-It is IMPERATIVE that the OSTYPE occur before any MAILER definitions.
-In general, the OSTYPE macro should go immediately after any version
-information, and MAILER definitions should always go last.
-
-Operating system definitions are usually easy to write. They may define
-the following variables (everything defaults, so an ostype file may be
-empty). Unfortunately, the list of configuration-supported systems is
-not as broad as the list of source-supported systems, since many of
-the source contributors do not include corresponding ostype files.
-
-ALIAS_FILE [/etc/aliases] The location of the text version
- of the alias file(s). It can be a comma-separated
- list of names (but be sure you quote values with
- commas in them -- for example, use
- define(`ALIAS_FILE', `a,b')
- to get "a" and "b" both listed as alias files;
- otherwise the define() primitive only sees "a").

-
-+---------+
-| DOMAINS |
-+---------+
-
-You will probably want to collect domain-dependent defines into one
-file, referenced by the DOMAIN macro. For example, our Berkeley
-domain file includes definitions for several internal distinguished
-hosts:
-
-UUCP_RELAY The host that will accept UUCP-addressed email.
- If not defined, all UUCP sites must be directly
- connected.
-BITNET_RELAY The host that will accept BITNET-addressed email.
- If not defined, the .BITNET pseudo-domain won't work.
-DECNET_RELAY The host that will accept DECNET-addressed email.
- If not defined, the .DECNET pseudo-domain and addresses
- of the form node::user will not work.
-FAX_RELAY The host that will accept mail to the .FAX pseudo-domain.
- The "fax" mailer overrides this value.
-LOCAL_RELAY DEPRECATED. The site that will handle unqualified
- names -- that is, names with out an @domain extension.
- If not set, they are assumed to belong on this machine.
- This allows you to have a central site to store a
- company- or department-wide alias database. This
- only works at small sites, and only with some user
- agents.
-LUSER_RELAY The site that will handle lusers -- that is, apparently
- local names that aren't local accounts or aliases.
-
-Any of these can be either ``mailer:hostname'' (in which case the
-mailer is the internal mailer name, such as ``uucp-new'' and the hostname
-is the name of the host as appropriate for that mailer) or just a
-``hostname'', in which case a default mailer type (usually ``relay'',
-a variant on SMTP) is used. WARNING: if you have a wildcard MX
-record matching your domain, you probably want to define these to
-have a trailing dot so that you won't get the mail diverted back
-to yourself.
-
-The domain file can also be used to define a domain name, if needed
-(using "DD<domain>") and set certain site-wide features. If all hosts
-at your site masquerade behind one email name, you could also use
-MASQUERADE_AS here.
-
-You do not have to define a domain -- in particular, if you are a
-single machine sitting off somewhere, it is probably more work than
-it's worth. This is just a mechanism for combining "domain dependent
-knowledge" into one place.
-
-+---------+
-| MAILERS |
-+---------+
-
-There are fewer mailers supported in this version than the previous
-version, owing mostly to a simpler world. As a general rule, put the
-MAILER definitions last in your .mc file, and always put MAILER(smtp)
-before MAILER(uucp) -- several features and definitions will modify
-the definition of mailers, and the smtp mailer modifies the UUCP
-mailer.
-
-local The local and prog mailers. You will almost always
- need these; the only exception is if you relay ALL
- your mail to another site. This mailer is included
- automatically.
-
-smtp The Simple Mail Transport Protocol mailer. This does
- not hide hosts behind a gateway or another other
- such hack; it assumes a world where everyone is
- running the name server. This file actually defines
- four mailers: "smtp" for regular (old-style) SMTP to
- other servers, "esmtp" for extended SMTP to other
- servers, "smtp8" to do SMTP to other servers without
- converting 8-bit data to MIME (essentially, this is
- your statement that you know the other end is 8-bit
- clean even if it doesn't say so), and "relay" for
- transmission to our RELAY_HOST, LUSER_RELAY, or
- MAILER_HUB.
-
-uucp The Unix-to-Unix Copy Program mailer. Actually, this
- defines two mailers, "uucp-old" (a.k.a. "uucp") and
- "uucp-new" (a.k.a. "suucp"). The latter is for when you
- know that the UUCP mailer at the other end can handle
- multiple recipients in one transfer. If the smtp mailer
- is also included in your configuration, two other mailers
- ("uucp-dom" and "uucp-uudom") are also defined [warning:
- you MUST specify MAILER(smtp) before MAILER(uucp)]. When you
- include the uucp mailer, sendmail looks for all names in
- the $=U class and sends them to the uucp-old mailer; all
- names in the $=Y class are sent to uucp-new; and all
- names in the $=Z class are sent to uucp-uudom. Note that
- this is a function of what version of rmail runs on
- the receiving end, and hence may be out of your control.
- See the section below describing UUCP mailers in more
- detail.
-
-usenet Usenet (network news) delivery. If this is specified,
- an extra rule is added to ruleset 0 that forwards all
- local email for users named ``group.usenet'' to the
- ``inews'' program. Note that this works for all groups,
- and may be considered a security problem.
-
-fax Facsimile transmission. This is experimental and based
- on Sam Leffler's HylaFAX software. For more information,
- see http://www.vix.com/hylafax/.
-
-pop Post Office Protocol.
-
-procmail An interface to procmail (does not come with sendmail).
- This is designed to be used in mailertables. For example,
- a common question is "how do I forward all mail for a given
- domain to a single person?". If you have this mailer
- defined, you could set up a mailertable reading:
-
- host.com procmail:/etc/procmailrcs/host.com
-
- with the file /etc/procmailrcs/host.com reading:
-
- :0 # forward mail for host.com
- ! -oi -f $1 person@other.host
-
- This would arrange for (anything)@host.com to be sent
- to person@other.host. Within the procmail script, $1 is
- the name of the sender and $2 is the name of the recipient.
- If you use this with FEATURE(local_procmail), the FEATURE
- should be listed first.
-
-mail11 The DECnet mail11 mailer, useful only if you have the mail11
- program from gatekeeper.dec.com:/pub/DEC/gwtools (and
- DECnet, of course). This is for Phase IV DECnet support;
- if you have Phase V at your site you may have additional
- problems.
-
-phquery The phquery program. This is somewhat counterintuitively
- referenced as the "ph" mailer internally. It can be used
- to do CCSO name server lookups. The phquery program, which
- this mailer uses, is distributed with the ph client.
-
-cyrus The cyrus and cyrusbb mailers. The cyrus mailer delivers to
- a local cyrus user. this mailer can make use of the
- "user+detail@local.host" syntax; it will deliver the mail to
- the user's "detail" mailbox if the mailbox's ACL permits.
- The cyrusbb mailer delivers to a system-wide cyrus mailbox
- if the mailbox's ACL permits.
-
-
-The local mailer accepts addresses of the form "user+detail", where
-the "+detail" is not used for mailbox matching but is available
-to certain local mail programs (in particular, see FEATURE(local_procmail)).
-For example, "eric", "eric+sendmail", and "eric+sww" all indicate
-the same user, but additional arguments <null>, "sendmail", and "sww"
-may be provided for use in sorting mail.
-
-
-+----------+
-| FEATURES |
-+----------+
-
-Special features can be requested using the "FEATURE" macro. For
-example, the .mc line:
-
- FEATURE(use_cw_file)
-
-tells sendmail that you want to have it read an /etc/sendmail.cw
-file to get values for class $=w. The FEATURE may contain a single
-optional parameter -- for example:
-
- FEATURE(mailertable, dbm /usr/lib/mailertable)
-
-Available features are:
-
-use_cw_file Read the file /etc/sendmail.cw file to get alternate
- names for this host. This might be used if you were
- on a host that MXed for a dynamic set of other
- hosts. If the set is static, just including the line
- "Cw<name1> <name2> ..." is probably superior.
- The actual filename can be overridden by redefining
- confCW_FILE.
-
-use_ct_file Read the file /etc/sendmail.ct file to get the names
- of users that will be ``trusted'', that is, able to
- set their envelope from address using -f without
- generating a warning message.
- The actual filename can be overridden by redefining
- confCT_FILE.
-
-redirect Reject all mail addressed to "address.REDIRECT" with
- a ``551 User not local; please try <address>'' message.
- If this is set, you can alias people who have left
- to their new address with ".REDIRECT" appended.
-
-nouucp Don't do anything special with UUCP addresses at all.
-
-nocanonify Don't pass addresses to $[ ... $] for canonification.
- This would generally only be used by sites that only
- act as mail gateways or which have user agents that do
- full canonification themselves. You may also want to
- use "define(`confBIND_OPTS',`-DNSRCH -DEFNAMES')" to
- turn off the usual resolver options that do a similar
- thing.
-
-stickyhost If set, email sent to "user@local.host" are marked
- as "sticky" -- that is, the local addresses aren't
- matched against UDB and don't go through ruleset 5.
- This is used if you want a set up where "user" is
- not necessarily the same as "user@local.host", e.g.,
- to make a distinct domain-wide namespace. Prior to
- 8.7 this was the default, and notsticky was used to
- turn this off.
-
-mailertable Include a "mailer table" which can be used to override
- routing for particular domains. The argument of the
- FEATURE may be the key definition. If none is specified,
- the definition used is:
- hash -o /etc/mailertable
- Keys in this database are fully qualified domain names
- or partial domains preceded by a dot -- for example,
- "vangogh.CS.Berkeley.EDU" or ".CS.Berkeley.EDU".
- Values must be of the form:
- mailer:domain
- where "mailer" is the internal mailer name, and "domain"
- is where to send the message. These maps are not
- reflected into the message header.
-
-domaintable Include a "domain table" which can be used to provide
- domain name mapping. Use of this should really be
- limited to your own domains. It may be useful if you
- change names (e.g., your company changes names from
- oldname.com to newname.com). The argument of the
- FEATURE may be the key definition. If none is specified,
- the definition used is:
- hash -o /etc/domaintable
- The key in this table is the domain name; the value is
- the new (fully qualified) domain. Anything in the
- domaintable is reflected into headers; that is, this
- is done in ruleset 3.
-
-bitdomain Look up bitnet hosts in a table to try to turn them into
- internet addresses. The table can be built using the
- bitdomain program contributed by John Gardiner Myers.
- The argument of the FEATURE may be the key definition; if
- none is specified, the definition used is:
- hash -o /etc/bitdomain.db
- Keys are the bitnet hostname; values are the corresponding
- internet hostname.
-
-uucpdomain Similar feature for UUCP hosts. The default map definition
- is:
- hash -o /etc/uudomain.db
- At the moment there is no automagic tool to build this
- database.
-
-always_add_domain
- Include the local host domain even on locally delivered
- mail. Normally it is not added on unqualified names.
- However, if you use a shared message store but do not use
- the same user name space everywhere, you may need the host
- name on local names.
-
-allmasquerade If masquerading is enabled (using MASQUERADE_AS), this
- feature will cause recipient addresses to also masquerade
- as being from the masquerade host. Normally they get
- the local hostname. Although this may be right for
- ordinary users, it can break local aliases. For example,
- if you send to "localalias", the originating sendmail will
- find that alias and send to all members, but send the
- message with "To: localalias@masqueradehost". Since that
- alias likely does not exist, replies will fail. Use this
- feature ONLY if you can guarantee that the ENTIRE
- namespace on your masquerade host supersets all the
- local entries.
-
-limited_masquerade
- Normally, any hosts listed in $=w are masqueraded. If this
- feature is given, only the hosts listed in $=M are masqueraded.
- This is useful if you have several domains with disjoint
- namespaces hosted on the same machine.
-
-masquerade_entire_domain
- If masquerading is enabled (using MASQUERADE_AS) and
- MASQUERADE_DOMAIN (see below) is set, this feature will
- cause addresses to be rewritten such that the masquerading
- domains are actually entire domains to be hidden. All
- hosts within the masquerading domains will be rewritten
- to the masquerade name (used in MASQUERADE_AS). For example,
- if you have:
-
- MASQUERADE_AS(masq.com)
- MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(foo.org)
- MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(bar.com)
-
- then *foo.org and *bar.com are converted to masq.com. Without
- this feature, only foo.org and bar.com are masqueraded.
-
- NOTE: only domains within your jurisdiction and
- current hierarchy should be masqueraded using this.
-
-genericstable This feature will cause certain addresses originating in the
- local domain or a domain listed in $=G to be looked up in a
- map and turned into another ("generic") form, which can change
- both the domain name and the user name. This is similar to
- the userdb functionality. The same types of addresses as for
- masquerading are looked up, i.e. only header sender addresses
- unless the allmasquerade and/or masquerade_envelope features
- are given. The addresses must be in the list of names given
- by the macros GENERICS_DOMAIN or GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE
- (analogously to MASQUERADE_DOMAIN and MASQUERADE_DOMAIN_FILE,
- see below).
-
- The argument of FEATURE(genericstable) may be the map
- defintion; the default map definition is:
-
- hash -o /etc/genericstable
-
- The key for this table is either the full address or the
- unqualified username (the former is tried first); the
- value is the new user address. If the new user address does
- not include a domain, $j is used. Note that the address
- being looked up must be fully qualified. For local mail, it
- is necessary to use FEATURE(always_add_domain) for the
- addresses to be qualified.
-
-virtusertable A domain-specific form of aliasing, allowing multiple
- virtual domains to be hosted on one machine. For example,
- if the virtuser table contained:
-
- info@foo.com foo-info
- info@bar.com bar-info
- @baz.org jane@elsewhere.net
-
- then mail addressed to info@foo.com will be sent to the
- address foo-info, mail addressed to info@bar.com will be
- delivered to bar-info, and mail addressed to anyone at
- baz.org will be sent to jane@elsewhere.net. The username
- from the original address is passed as %1 allowing:
-
- @foo.org %1@elsewhere.com
-
- meaning someone@foo.org will be sent to someone@elsewhere.com.
-
- All the host names on the left hand side (foo.com, bar.com,
- and baz.org) must be in $=w. The default map definition is:
-
- hash -o /etc/virtusertable
-
- A new definition can be specified as the second argument of
- the FEATURE macro, such as
-
- FEATURE(virtusertable, dbm -o /etc/mail/virtusers)
-
-nodns We aren't running DNS at our site (for example,
- we are UUCP-only connected). It's hard to consider
- this a "feature", but hey, it had to go somewhere.
- Actually, as of 8.7 this is a no-op -- remove "dns" from
- the hosts service switch entry instead.
-
-nullclient This is a special case -- it creates a stripped down
- configuration file containing nothing but support for
- forwarding all mail to a central hub via a local
- SMTP-based network. The argument is the name of that
- hub.
-
- The only other feature that should be used in conjunction
- with this one is "nocanonify" (this causes addresses to
- be sent unqualified via the SMTP connection; normally
- they are qualifed with the masquerade name, which
- defaults to the name of the hub machine). No mailers
- should be defined. No aliasing or forwarding is done.
-
-local_procmail Use procmail as the local mailer. This mailer can
- make use of the "user+indicator@local.host" syntax;
- normally the +indicator is just tossed, but by default
- it is passed as the -a argument to procmail. The
- argument to this feature is the pathname of procmail,
- which defaults to PROCMAIL_MAILER_PATH. Note that this
- does NOT use PROCMAIL_MAILER_FLAGS or PROCMAIL_MAILER_ARGS
- for the local mailer; tweak LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS and
- LOCAL_MAILER_ARGS instead.
-
-bestmx_is_local Accept mail as though locally addressed for any host that
- lists us as the best possible MX record. This generates
- additional DNS traffic, but should be OK for low to
- medium traffic hosts. THIS FEATURE IS FUNDAMENTALLY
- INCOMPATIBLE WITH WILDCARD MX RECORDS!!! If you have
- a wildcard MX record that matches your domain, you
- cannot use this feature.
-
-smrsh Use the SendMail Restricted SHell (smrsh) provided
- with the distribution instead of /bin/sh for mailing
- to programs. This improves the ability of the local
- system administrator to control what gets run via
- e-mail. If an argument is provided it is used as the
- pathname to smrsh; otherwise, /usr/local/etc/smrsh is
- assumed.
-
-
-+-------+
-| HACKS |
-+-------+
-
-Some things just can't be called features. To make this clear,
-they go in the hack subdirectory and are referenced using the HACK
-macro. These will tend to be site-dependent. The release
-includes the Berkeley-dependent "cssubdomain" hack (that makes
-sendmail accept local names in either Berkeley.EDU or CS.Berkeley.EDU;
-this is intended as a short-term aid while we move hosts into
-subdomains.
-
-
-+--------------------+
-| SITE CONFIGURATION |
-+--------------------+
-
- *****************************************************
- * This section is really obsolete, and is preserved *
- * only for back compatibility. You should plan on *
- * using mailertables for new installations. In *
- * particular, it doesn't work for the newer forms *
- * of UUCP mailers, such as uucp-uudom. *
- *****************************************************
-
-Complex sites will need more local configuration information, such as
-lists of UUCP hosts they speak with directly. This can get a bit more
-tricky. For an example of a "complex" site, see cf/ucbvax.mc.
-
-If your host is known by several different names, you need to augment
-the $=w class. This is a list of names by which you are known, and
-anything sent to an address using a host name in this list will be
-treated as local mail. You can do this in two ways: either create
-the file /etc/sendmail.cw containing a list of your aliases (one per
-line), and use ``FEATURE(use_cw_file)'' in the .mc file, or add the
-line:
-
- Cw alias.host.name
-
-at the end of that file. See the ``vangogh.mc'' file for an example.
-Be sure you use the fully-qualified name of the host, rather than a
-short name.
-
-The SITECONFIG macro allows you to indirectly reference site-dependent
-configuration information stored in the siteconfig subdirectory. For
-example, the line
-
- SITECONFIG(uucp.ucbvax, ucbvax, U)
-
-reads the file uucp.ucbvax for local connection information. The
-second parameter is the local name (in this case just "ucbvax" since
-it is locally connected, and hence a UUCP hostname). The third
-parameter is the name of both a macro to store the local name (in
-this case, $U) and the name of the class (e.g., $=U) in which to store
-the host information read from the file. Another SITECONFIG line reads
-
- SITECONFIG(uucp.ucbarpa, ucbarpa.Berkeley.EDU, W)
-
-This says that the file uucp.ucbarpa contains the list of UUCP sites
-connected to ucbarpa.Berkeley.EDU. The $=W class will be used to
-store this list, and $W is defined to be ucbarpa.Berkeley.EDU, that
-is, the name of the relay to which the hosts listed in uucp.ucbarpa
-are connected. [The machine ucbarpa is gone now, but I've left
-this out-of-date configuration file around to demonstrate how you
-might do this.]
-
-Note that the case of SITECONFIG with a third parameter of ``U'' is
-special; the second parameter is assumed to be the UUCP name of the
-local site, rather than the name of a remote site, and the UUCP name
-is entered into $=w (the list of local hostnames) as $U.UUCP.
-
-The siteconfig file (e.g., siteconfig/uucp.ucbvax.m4) contains nothing
-more than a sequence of SITE macros describing connectivity. For
-example:
-
- SITE(cnmat)
- SITE(sgi olympus)
-
-The second example demonstrates that you can use two names on the
-same line; these are usually aliases for the same host (or are at
-least in the same company).
-
-
-+--------------------+
-| USING UUCP MAILERS |
-+--------------------+
-
-It's hard to get UUCP mailers right because of the extremely ad hoc
-nature of UUCP addressing. These config files are really designed
-for domain-based addressing, even for UUCP sites.
-
-There are four UUCP mailers available. The choice of which one to
-use is partly a matter of local preferences and what is running at
-the other end of your UUCP connection. Unlike good protocols that
-define what will go over the wire, UUCP uses the policy that you
-should do what is right for the other end; if they change, you have
-to change. This makes it hard to do the right thing, and discourages
-people from updating their software. In general, if you can avoid
-UUCP, please do.
-
-The major choice is whether to go for a domainized scheme or a
-non-domainized scheme. This depends entirely on what the other
-end will recognize. If at all possible, you should encourage the
-other end to go to a domain-based system -- non-domainized addresses
-don't work entirely properly.
-
-The four mailers are:
-
- uucp-old (obsolete name: "uucp")
- This is the oldest, the worst (but the closest to UUCP) way of
- sending messages accros UUCP connections. It does bangify
- everything and prepends $U (your UUCP name) to the sender's
- address (which can already be a bang path itself). It can
- only send to one address at a time, so it spends a lot of
- time copying duplicates of messages. Avoid this if at all
- possible.
-
- uucp-new (obsolete name: "suucp")
- The same as above, except that it assumes that in one rmail
- command you can specify several recipients. It still has a
- lot of other problems.
-
- uucp-dom
- This UUCP mailer keeps everything as domain addresses.
- Basically, it uses the SMTP mailer rewriting rules. This mailer
- is only included if MAILER(smtp) is also specified.
-
- Unfortunately, a lot of UUCP mailer transport agents require
- bangified addresses in the envelope, although you can use
- domain-based addresses in the message header. (The envelope
- shows up as the From_ line on UNIX mail.) So....
-
- uucp-uudom
- This is a cross between uucp-new (for the envelope addresses)
- and uucp-dom (for the header addresses). It bangifies the
- envelope sender (From_ line in messages) without adding the
- local hostname, unless there is no host name on the address
- at all (e.g., "wolf") or the host component is a UUCP host name
- instead of a domain name ("somehost!wolf" instead of
- "some.dom.ain!wolf"). This is also included only if MAILER(smtp)
- is also specified.
-
-Examples:
-
-We are on host grasp.insa-lyon.fr (UUCP host name "grasp"). The
-following summarizes the sender rewriting for various mailers.
-
-Mailer sender rewriting in the envelope
------- ------ -------------------------
-uucp-{old,new} wolf grasp!wolf
-uucp-dom wolf wolf@grasp.insa-lyon.fr
-uucp-uudom wolf grasp.insa-lyon.fr!wolf
-
-uucp-{old,new} wolf@fr.net grasp!fr.net!wolf
-uucp-dom wolf@fr.net wolf@fr.net
-uucp-uudom wolf@fr.net fr.net!wolf
-
-uucp-{old,new} somehost!wolf grasp!somehost!wolf
-uucp-dom somehost!wolf somehost!wolf@grasp.insa-lyon.fr
-uucp-uudom somehost!wolf grasp.insa-lyon.fr!somehost!wolf
-
-If you are using one of the domainized UUCP mailers, you really want
-to convert all UUCP addresses to domain format -- otherwise, it will
-do it for you (and probably not the way you expected). For example,
-if you have the address foo!bar!baz (and you are not sending to foo),
-the heuristics will add the @uucp.relay.name or @local.host.name to
-this address. However, if you map foo to foo.host.name first, it
-will not add the local hostname. You can do this using the uucpdomain
-feature.
-
-
-+-------------------+
-| TWEAKING RULESETS |
-+-------------------+
-
-For more complex configurations, you can define special rules.
-The macro LOCAL_RULE_3 introduces rules that are used in canonicalizing
-the names. Any modifications made here are reflected in the header.
-
-A common use is to convert old UUCP addreses to SMTP addresses using
-the UUCPSMTP macro. For example:
-
- LOCAL_RULE_3
- UUCPSMTP(decvax, decvax.dec.com)
- UUCPSMTP(research, research.att.com)
-
-will cause addresses of the form "decvax!user" and "research!user"
-to be converted to "user@decvax.dec.com" and "user@research.att.com"
-respectively.
-
-This could also be used to look up hosts in a database map:
-
- LOCAL_RULE_3
- R$* < @ $+ > $* $: $1 < @ $(hostmap $2 $) > $3
-
-This map would be defined in the LOCAL_CONFIG portion, as shown below.
-
-Similarly, LOCAL_RULE_0 can be used to introduce new parsing rules.
-For example, new rules are needed to parse hostnames that you accept
-via MX records. For example, you might have:
-
- LOCAL_RULE_0
- R$+ <@ host.dom.ain.> $#uucp $@ cnmat $: $1 < @ host.dom.ain.>
-
-You would use this if you had installed an MX record for cnmat.Berkeley.EDU
-pointing at this host; this rule catches the message and forwards it on
-using UUCP.
-
-You can also tweak rulesets 1 and 2 using LOCAL_RULE_1 and LOCAL_RULE_2.
-These rulesets are normally empty.
-
-A similar macro is LOCAL_CONFIG. This introduces lines added after the
-boilerplate option setting but before rulesets, and can be used to
-declare local database maps or whatever. For example:
-
- LOCAL_CONFIG
- Khostmap hash /etc/hostmap.db
- Kyplocal nis -m hosts.byname
-
-
-+---------------------------+
-| MASQUERADING AND RELAYING |
-+---------------------------+
-
-You can have your host masquerade as another using
-
- MASQUERADE_AS(host.domain)
-
-This causes mail being sent to be labeled as coming from the
-indicated host.domain, rather than $j. One normally masquerades as
-one of one's own subdomains (for example, it's unlikely that I would
-choose to masquerade as an MIT site). This behaviour is modified by
-a plethora of FEATUREs; in particular, see masquerade_envelope,
-allmasquerade, limited_masquerade, and masquerade_entire_domain.
-
-The masquerade name is not normally canonified, so it is important
-that it be your One True Name, that is, fully qualified and not a
-CNAME. However, if you use a CNAME, the receiving side may canonify
-it for you, so don't think you can cheat CNAME mapping this way.
-
-Normally the only addresses that are masqueraded are those that come
-from this host (that is, are either unqualified or in $=w, the list
-of local domain names). You can augment this list using
-
- MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(otherhost.domain)
-
-The effect of this is that although mail to user@otherhost.domain
-will not be delivered locally, any mail including any user@otherhost.domain
-will, when relayed, be rewritten to have the MASQUERADE_AS address.
-This can be a space-separated list of names.
-
-If these names are in a file, you can use
-
- MASQUERADE_DOMAIN_FILE(filename)
-
-to read the list of names from the indicated file.
-
-Normally only header addresses are masqueraded. If you want to
-masquerade the envelope as well, use
-
- FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)
-
-There are always users that need to be "exposed" -- that is, their
-internal site name should be displayed instead of the masquerade name.
-Root is an example. You can add users to this list using
-
- EXPOSED_USER(usernames)
-
-This adds users to class E; you could also use something like
-
- FE/etc/sendmail.cE
-
-You can also arrange to relay all unqualified names (that is, names
-without @host) to a relay host. For example, if you have a central
-email server, you might relay to that host so that users don't have
-to have .forward files or aliases. You can do this using
-
- define(`LOCAL_RELAY', mailer:hostname)
-
-The ``mailer:'' can be omitted, in which case the mailer defaults to
-"relay". There are some user names that you don't want relayed, perhaps
-because of local aliases. A common example is root, which may be
-locally aliased. You can add entries to this list using
-
- LOCAL_USER(usernames)
-
-This adds users to class L; you could also use something like
-
- FL/etc/sendmail.cL
-
-If you want all incoming mail sent to a centralized hub, as for a
-shared /var/spool/mail scheme, use
-
- define(`MAIL_HUB', mailer:hostname)
-
-Again, ``mailer:'' defaults to "relay". If you define both LOCAL_RELAY
-and MAIL_HUB _AND_ you have FEATURE(stickyhost), unqualified names will
-be sent to the LOCAL_RELAY and other local names will be sent to MAIL_HUB.
-Names in $=L will be delivered locally, so you MUST have aliases or
-.forward files for them.
-
-For example, if you are on machine mastodon.CS.Berkeley.EDU and you have
-FEATURE(stickyhost), the following combinations of settings will have the
-indicated effects:
-
-email sent to.... eric eric@mastodon.CS.Berkeley.EDU
-
-LOCAL_RELAY set to mail.CS.Berkeley.EDU (delivered locally)
-mail.CS.Berkeley.EDU (no local aliasing) (aliasing done)
-
-MAIL_HUB set to mammoth.CS.Berkeley.EDU mammoth.CS.Berkeley.EDU
-mammoth.CS.Berkeley.EDU (aliasing done) (aliasing done)
-
-Both LOCAL_RELAY and mail.CS.Berkeley.EDU mammoth.CS.Berkeley.EDU
-MAIL_HUB set as above (no local aliasing) (aliasing done)
-
-If you do not have FEATURE(stickyhost) set, then LOCAL_RELAY and
-MAIL_HUB act identically, with MAIL_HUB taking precedence.
-
-If you want all outgoing mail to go to a central relay site, define
-SMART_HOST as well. Briefly:
-
- LOCAL_RELAY applies to unqualifed names (e.g., "eric").
- MAIL_HUB applies to names qualified with the name of the
- local host (e.g., "eric@mastodon.CS.Berkeley.EDU").
- SMART_HOST applies to names qualified with other hosts.
-
-However, beware that other relays (e.g., UUCP_RELAY, BITNET_RELAY,
-DECNET_RELAY, and FAX_RELAY) take precedence over SMART_HOST, so if you
-really want absolutely everything to go to a single central site you will
-need to unset all the other relays -- or better yet, find or build a
-minimal config file that does this.
-
-For duplicate suppression to work properly, the host name is best
-specified with a terminal dot:
-
- define(`MAIL_HUB', `host.domain.')
- note the trailing dot ---^
-
-
-+--------------------------------+
-| ADDING NEW MAILERS OR RULESETS |
-+--------------------------------+
-
-Sometimes you may need to add entirely new mailers or rulesets. They
-should be introduced with the constructs MAILER_DEFINITIONS and
-LOCAL_RULESETS respectively. For example:
-
- MAILER_DEFINITIONS
- Mmymailer, ...
- ...
-
- LOCAL_RULESETS
- Scheck_relay
- ...
-
-
-+-------------------------------+
-| NON-SMTP BASED CONFIGURATIONS |
-+-------------------------------+
-
-These configuration files are designed primarily for use by SMTP-based
-sites. I don't pretend that they are well tuned for UUCP-only or
-UUCP-primarily nodes (the latter is defined as a small local net
-connected to the rest of the world via UUCP). However, there is one
-hook to handle some special cases.
-
-You can define a ``smart host'' that understands a richer address syntax
-using:
-
- define(`SMART_HOST', mailer:hostname)
-
-In this case, the ``mailer:'' defaults to "relay". Any messages that
-can't be handled using the usual UUCP rules are passed to this host.
-
-If you are on a local SMTP-based net that connects to the outside
-world via UUCP, you can use LOCAL_NET_CONFIG to add appropriate rules.
-For example:
-
- define(`SMART_HOST', suucp:uunet)
- LOCAL_NET_CONFIG
- R$* < @ $* .$m. > $* $#smtp $@ $2.$m. $: $1 < @ $2.$m. > $3
-
-This will cause all names that end in your domain name ($m) via
-SMTP; anything else will be sent via suucp (smart UUCP) to uunet.
-If you have FEATURE(nocanonify), you may need to omit the dots after
-the $m. If you are running a local DNS inside your domain which is
-not otherwise connected to the outside world, you probably want to
-use:
-
- define(`SMART_HOST', smtp:fire.wall.com)
- LOCAL_NET_CONFIG
- R$* < @ $* . > $* $#smtp $@ $2. $: $1 < @ $2. > $3
-
-That is, send directly only to things you found in your DNS lookup;
-anything else goes through SMART_HOST.
-
-
-+-----------+
-| WHO AM I? |
-+-----------+
-
-Normally, the $j macro is automatically defined to be your fully
-qualified domain name (FQDN). Sendmail does this by getting your
-host name using gethostname and then calling gethostbyname on the
-result. For example, in some environments gethostname returns
-only the root of the host name (such as "foo"); gethostbyname is
-supposed to return the FQDN ("foo.bar.com"). In some (fairly rare)
-cases, gethostbyname may fail to return the FQDN. In this case
-you MUST define confDOMAIN_NAME to be your fully qualified domain
-name. This is usually done using:
-
- Dmbar.com
- define(`confDOMAIN_NAME', `$w.$m')dnl
-
-
-+--------------------+
-| USING MAILERTABLES |
-+--------------------+
-
-To use FEATURE(mailertable), you will have to create an external
-database containing the routing information for various domains.
-For example, a mailertable file in text format might be:
-
- .my.domain xnet:%1.my.domain
- uuhost1.my.domain suucp:uuhost1
- .bitnet smtp:relay.bit.net
-
-This should normally be stored in /etc/mailertable. The actual
-database version of the mailertable is built using:
-
- makemap hash /etc/mailertable.db < /etc/mailertable
-
-The semantics are simple. Any LHS entry that does not begin with
-a dot matches the full host name indicated. LHS entries beginning
-with a dot match anything ending with that domain name -- that is,
-they can be thought of as having a leading "*" wildcard. Matching
-is done in order of most-to-least qualified -- for example, even
-though ".my.domain" is listed first in the above example, an entry
-of "uuhost1.my.domain" will match the second entry since it is
-more explicit.
-
-The RHS should always be a "mailer:host" pair. The mailer is the
-configuration name of a mailer (that is, an `M' line in the
-sendmail.cf file). The "host" will be the hostname passed to
-that mailer. In domain-based matches (that is, those with leading
-dots) the "%1" may be used to interpolate the wildcarded part of
-the host name. For example, the first line above sends everything
-addressed to "anything.my.domain" to that same host name, but using
-the (presumably experimental) xnet mailer.
-
-In some cases you may want to temporarily turn off MX records,
-particularly on gateways. For example, you may want to MX
-everything in a domain to one machine that then forwards it
-directly. To do this, you might use the DNS configuration:
-
- *.domain. IN MX 0 relay.machine
-
-and on relay.machine use the mailertable:
-
- .domain smtp:[gateway.domain]
-
-The [square brackets] turn off MX records for this host only.
-If you didn't do this, the mailertable would use the MX record
-again, which would give you an MX loop.
-
-
-+--------------------------------+
-| USING USERDB TO MAP FULL NAMES |
-+--------------------------------+
-
-The user database was not originally intended for mapping full names
-to login names (e.g., Eric.Allman => eric), but some people are using
-it that way. (I would recommend that you set up aliases for this
-purpose instead -- since you can specify multiple alias files, this
-is fairly easy.) The intent was to locate the default maildrop at
-a site, but allow you to override this by sending to a specific host.
-
-If you decide to set up the user database in this fashion, it is
-imperative that you not use FEATURE(stickyhost) -- otherwise,
-e-mail sent to Full.Name@local.host.name will be rejected.
-
-To build the internal form of the user database, use:
-
- makemap btree /usr/data/base.db < /usr/data/base.txt
-
-As a general rule, I am adamantly opposed to using full names as
-e-mail addresses, since they are not in any sense unique. For example,
-the Unix software-development community has two Andy Tannenbaums,
-at least two well-known Peter Deutsches, and at one time Bell Labs
-had two Stephen R. Bournes with offices along the same hallway.
-Which one will be forced to suffer the indignity of being
-Stephen_R_Bourne_2? The less famous of the two, or the one that
-was hired later?
-
-Finger should handle full names (and be fuzzy). Mail should use
-handles, and not be fuzzy. [Not that I expect anyone to pay any
-attention to my opinions.]

-| MISCELLANEOUS SPECIAL FEATURES |
-+--------------------------------+
-
-Plussed users
- Sometimes it is convenient to merge configuration on a
- centralized mail machine, for example, to forward all
- root mail to a mail server. In this case it might be
- useful to be able to treat the root addresses as a class
- of addresses with subtle differences. You can do this
- using plussed users. For example, a client might include
- the alias:
-
- root: root+client1@server
-
- On the server, this will match an alias for "root+client1".
- If that is not found, the alias "root+*" will be tried,
- then "root".

-LDAP

-+----------------+
-| SECURITY NOTES |
-+----------------+
-
-A lot of sendmail security comes down to you. Sendmail 8 is much
-more careful about checking for security problems than previous
-versions, but there are some things that you still need to watch
-for. In particular:
-
-* Make sure the aliases file isn't writable except by trusted
- system personnel. This includes both the text and database
- version.
-
-* Make sure that other files that sendmail reads, such as the
- mailertable, are only writable by trusted system personnel.
-
-* The queue directory should not be world writable PARTICULARLY
- if your system allows "file giveaways" (that is, if a non-root
- user can chown any file they own to any other user).
-
-* If your system allows file giveaways, DO NOT create a publically
- writable directory for forward files. This will allow anyone
- to steal anyone else's e-mail. Instead, create a script that
- copies the .forward file from users' home directories once a
- night (if you want the non-NFS-mounted forward directory).
-
-* If your system allows file giveaways, you'll find that
- sendmail is much less trusting of :include: files -- in
- particular, you'll have to have /SENDMAIL/ANY/SHELL/ in
- /etc/shells before they will be trusted (that is, before
- files and programs listed in them will be honored).
-
-In general, file giveaways are a mistake -- if you can turn them
-off I recommend you do so.
-
-
-+--------------------------------+
-| TWEAKING CONFIGURATION OPTIONS |
-+--------------------------------+
-
-There are a large number of configuration options that don't normally
-need to be changed. However, if you feel you need to tweak them, you
-can define the following M4 variables. This list is shown in four
-columns: the name you define, the default value for that definition,
-the option or macro that is affected (either Ox for an option or Dx
-for a macro), and a brief description. Greater detail of the semantics
-can be found in the Installation and Operations Guide.
-
-Some options are likely to be deprecated in future versions -- that is,
-the option is only included to provide back-compatibility. These are
-marked with "*".
-
-Remember that these options are M4 variables, and hence may need to
-be quoted. In particular, arguments with commas will usually have to
-be ``double quoted, like this phrase'' to avoid having the comma
-confuse things. This is common for alias file definitions and for
-the read timeout.
-
-M4 Variable Name Configuration Description & [Default]
-================ ============= =======================
-confMAILER_NAME $n macro [MAILER-DAEMON] The sender name used
- for internally generated outgoing
- messages.
-confDOMAIN_NAME $j macro If defined, sets $j. This should

- local connectivity is required.
- Almost always "local".
-confRELAY_MAILER - [relay] The default mailer name used
- for relaying any mail (e.g., to a
- BITNET_RELAY, a SMART_HOST, or
- whatever). This can reasonably be
- "uucp-new" if you are on a

- rebuild until you get bored and
- decide that the apparently pending
- rebuild failed.
-confMIN_FREE_BLOCKS MinFreeBlocks [100] Minimum number of free blocks on
- queue filesystem to accept SMTP mail.
- (Prior to 8.7 this was minfree/maxsize,
- where minfree was the number of free
- blocks and maxsize was the maximum
- message size. Use confMAX_MESSAGE_SIZE
- for the second value now.)
-confMAX_MESSAGE_SIZE MaxMessageSize [infinite] The maximum size of messages
- that will be accepted (in bytes).
-confBLANK_SUB BlankSub [.] Blank (space) substitution
- character.

- [2] Size of open connection cache.
-confMCI_CACHE_TIMEOUT ConnectionCacheTimeout
- [5m] Open connection cache timeout.
-confHOST_STATUS_DIRECTORY HostStatusDirectory
- [undefined] If set, host status is kept
- on disk between sendmail runs in the
- named directory tree. This need not be
- a full pathname, in which case it is
- interpreted relative to the queue
- directory.
-confSINGLE_THREAD_DELIVERY SingleThreadDelivery
- [False] If this option and the
- HostStatusDirectory option are both
- set, single thread deliveries to other
- hosts. That is, don't allow any two
- sendmails on this host to connect
- simultaneously to any other single
- host. This can slow down delivery in
- some cases, in particular since a
- cached but otherwise idle connection
- to a host will prevent other sendmails
- from connecting to the other host.
-confUSE_ERRORS_TO* UserErrorsTo [False] Use the Errors-To: header to
- deliver error messages. This should
- not be necessary because of general
- acceptance of the envelope/header
- distinction.
-confLOG_LEVEL LogLevel [9] Log level.
-confME_TOO MeToo [False] Include sender in group
- expansions.
-confCHECK_ALIASES CheckAliases [False] Check RHS of aliases when

- special chars are old style.
-confDAEMON_OPTIONS DaemonPortOptions
- [none] SMTP daemon options.

-confDONT_PRUNE_ROUTES DontPruneRoutes [False] Don't prune down route-addr
- syntax addresses to the minimum
- possible.
-confSAFE_QUEUE* SuperSafe [True] Commit all messages to disk
- before forking.
-confTO_INITIAL Timeout.initial [5m] The timeout waiting for a response
- on the initial connect.
-confTO_CONNECT Timeout.connect [0] The timeout waiting for an initial
- connect() to complete. This can only
- shorten connection timeouts; the kernel
- silently enforces an absolute maximum
- (which varies depending on the system).
-confTO_ICONNECT Timeout.iconnect
- [undefined] Like Timeout.connect, but
- applies only to the very first attempt
- to connect to a host in a message.
- This allows a single very fast pass
- followed by more careful delivery
- attempts in the future.
-confTO_HELO Timeout.helo [5m] The timeout waiting for a response
- to a HELO or EHLO command.
-confTO_MAIL Timeout.mail [10m] The timeout waiting for a

- during DATA phase.
-confTO_DATAFINAL Timeout.datafinal
- [1h] The timeout waiting for a response
- to the final "." that terminates a

- for a command to be issued.
-confTO_IDENT Timeout.ident [30s] The timeout waiting for a response
- to an IDENT query.
-confTO_FILEOPEN Timeout.fileopen
- [60s] The timeout waiting for a file
- (e.g., :include: file) to be opened.
-confTO_QUEUERETURN Timeout.queuereturn
- [5d] The timeout before a message is
- returned as undeliverable.
-confTO_QUEUERETURN_NORMAL

- [undefined] As above, for normal
- priority messages.
-confTO_QUEUERETURN_URGENT
- Timeout.queuereturn.urgent
- [undefined] As above, for urgent
- priority messages.
-confTO_QUEUERETURN_NONURGENT
- Timeout.queuereturn.non-urgent
- [undefined] As above, for non-urgent
- (low) priority messages.

- (low) priority messages.
-confTO_HOSTSTATUS Timeout.hoststatus
- [30m] How long information about host
- statuses will be maintained before it
- is considered stale and the host should
- be retried. This applies both within
- a single queue run and to persistent
- information (see below).
-confTIME_ZONE TimeZoneSpec [USE_SYSTEM] Time zone info -- can be
- USE_SYSTEM to use the system's idea,
- USE_TZ to use the user's TZ envariable,
- or something else to force that value.
-confDEF_USER_ID DefaultUser [1:1] Default user id.
-confUSERDB_SPEC UserDatabaseSpec
- [undefined] User database specification.
-confFALLBACK_MX FallbackMXhost [undefined] Fallback MX host.
-confTRY_NULL_MX_LIST TryNullMXList [False] If we are the best MX for a
- host and haven't made other
- arrangements, try connecting to the
- host directly; normally this would be
- a config error.
-confQUEUE_LA QueueLA [8] Load average at which queue-only
- function kicks in.
-confREFUSE_LA RefuseLA [12] Load average at which incoming
- SMTP connections are refused.
-confMAX_DAEMON_CHILDREN MaxDaemonChildren
- [undefined] The maximum number of
- children the daemon will permit. After
- this number, connections will be
- rejected. If not set or <= 0, there is
- no limit.
-confCONNECTION_RATE_THROTTLE ConnectionRateThrottle
- [undefined] The maximum number of
- connections permitted per second.
- After this many connections are
- accepted, further connections will be

-confQUEUE_SORT_ORDER QueueSortOrder [Priority] Queue sort algorithm:
- Priority, Host, or Time.
-confMIN_QUEUE_AGE MinQueueAge [0] The minimum amount of time a job
- must sit in the queue between queue
- runs. This allows you to set the
- queue run interval low for better
- resposiveness without trying all
- jobs in each run.
-confDEF_CHAR_SET DefaultCharSet [unknown-8bit] When converting
- unlabelled 8 bit input to MIME, the
- character set to use by default.
-confSERVICE_SWITCH_FILE ServiceSwitchFile
- [/etc/service.switch] The file to use
- for the service switch on systems that
- do not have a system-defined switch.
-confHOSTS_FILE HostsFile [/etc/hosts] The file to use when doing
- "file" type access of hosts names.
-confDIAL_DELAY DialDelay [0s] If a connection fails, wait this
- long and try again. Zero means "don't
- retry". This is to allow "dial on
- demand" connections to have enough time
- to complete a connection.
-confNO_RCPT_ACTION NoRecipientAction
- [none] What to do if there are no legal
- recipient fields (To:, Cc: or Bcc:)
- in the message. Legal values can
- be "none" to just leave the
- nonconforming message as is, "add-to"
- to add a To: header with all the
- known recipients (which may expose
- blind recipients), "add-apparently-to"
- to do the same but use Apparently-To:
- instead of To:, "add-bcc" to add an
- empty Bcc: header, or
- "add-to-undisclosed" to add the header
- ``To: undisclosed-recipients:;''.
-confSAFE_FILE_ENV SafeFileEnvironment
- [undefined] If set, sendmail will do a
- chroot() into this directory before
- writing files.
-confCOLON_OK_IN_ADDR ColonOkInAddr [True unless Configuration Level > 6]
- If set, colons are treated as a regular
- character in addresses. If not set,
- they are treated as the introducer to
- the RFC 822 "group" syntax. Colons are
- handled properly in route-addrs. This
- option defaults on for V5 and lower
- configuration files.
-confMAX_QUEUE_RUN_SIZE MaxQueueRunSize [0] If set, limit the maximum size of
- any given queue run to this number of
- entries. Essentially, this will stop
- reading the queue directory after this
- number of entries are reached; it does
- _not_ pick the highest priority jobs,
- so this should be as large as your
- system can tolerate. If not set, there
- is no limit.
-confDONT_EXPAND_CNAMES DontExpandCnames
- [False] If set, $[ ... $] lookups that
- do DNS based lookups do not expand
- CNAME records. This currently violates
- the published standards, but the IETF
- seems to be moving toward legalizing
- this. For example, if "FTP.Foo.ORG"
- is a CNAME for "Cruft.Foo.ORG", then
- with this option set a lookup of
- "FTP" will return "FTP.Foo.ORG"; if
- clear it returns "Cruft.FOO.ORG". N.B.
- you may not see any effect until your
- downstream neighbors stop doing CNAME
- lookups as well.
-confFROM_LINE UnixFromLine [From $g $d] The From_ line used
- when sending to files or programs.
-confOPERATORS OperatorChars [.:%@!^/[]+] Address operator
- characters.
-confSMTP_LOGIN_MSG SmtpGreetingMessage
- [$j Sendmail $v/$Z; $b]
- The initial (spontaneous) SMTP
- greeting message. The word "ESMTP"
- will be inserted between the first and
- second words to convince other
- sendmails to try to speak ESMTP.
-confDONT_INIT_GROUPS DontInitGroups [False] If set, the initgroups(3)
- routine will never be invoked. You
- might want to do this if you are
- running NIS and you have a large group
- map, since this call does a sequential
- scan of the map; in a large site this
- can cause your ypserv to run
- essentially full time. If you set
- this, agents run on behalf of users
- will only have their primary
- (/etc/passwd) group permissions.
-confUNSAFE_GROUP_WRITES UnsafeGroupWrites
- [False] If set, group-writable
- :include: and .forward files are
- considered "unsafe", that is, programs
- and files cannot be directly referenced
- from such files. World-writable files
- are always considered unsafe.
-confDOUBLE_BOUNCE_ADDRESS DoubleBounceAddress
- [postmaster] If an error occurs when
- sending an error message, send that
- "double bounce" error message to this
- address.
-confRUN_AS_USER RunAsUser [undefined] If set, become this user
- when reading and delivering mail.
- Causes all file reads (e.g., .forward
- and :include: files) to be done as
- this user. Also, all programs will
- be run as this user, and all output
- files will be written as this user.
- Intended for use only on firewalls
- where users do not have accounts.
-
-See also the description of OSTYPE for some parameters that can be
-tweaked (generally pathnames to mailers).

-| HIERARCHY |
-+-----------+
-
-Within this directory are several subdirectories, to wit:
-
-m4 General support routines. These are typically
- very important and should not be changed without
- very careful consideration.
-
-cf The configuration files themselves. They have
- ".mc" suffixes, and must be run through m4 to
- become complete. The resulting output should
- have a ".cf" suffix.
-
-ostype Definitions describing a particular operating
- system type. These should always be referenced
- using the OSTYPE macro in the .mc file. Examples
- include "bsd4.3", "bsd4.4", "sunos3.5", and
- "sunos4.1".
-
-domain Definitions describing a particular domain, referenced
- using the DOMAIN macro in the .mc file. These are
- site dependent; for example, "CS.Berkeley.EDU.m4"
- describes hosts in the CS.Berkeley.EDU subdomain.
-
-mailer Descriptions of mailers. These are referenced using
- the MAILER macro in the .mc file.
-
-sh Shell files used when building the .cf file from the
- .mc file in the cf subdirectory.
-
-feature These hold special orthogonal features that you might
- want to include. They should be referenced using
- the FEATURE macro.
-
-hack Local hacks. These can be referenced using the HACK
- macro. They shouldn't be of more than voyeuristic
- interest outside the .Berkeley.EDU domain, but who knows?
- We've all got our own peccadillos.
-
-siteconfig Site configuration -- e.g., tables of locally connected
- UUCP sites.
