To: questions@freebsd.org Date: Mon, 1 Jan 1996 21:44:53 -0500 (EST) Department: Faculty of Computer Engineering Organization: Northeastern University, Boston, MA. X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL23] MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi, I would appreciate if someone can help in this sendmail config. I'm new at this mail routing stuff. I run a BBS with dailup UUCP mail (userid@domain.org) currently. Recently I have got a Class C address and 56k leased line. I plan to put both the BBS and my Web server/DNS (FreeBSD) onto the net via my router as gateway and forget about UUCP! I have to assign the nodename for the BBS to bbs.domain.org and the nodename for the Web server to www.domain.org. How do I configure sendmail.cf and/or DNS MX record so that my users on the BBS will _NOT_ require to change their email from userid@domain.org to userid@bbs.domain.org? Or in other words, all I need here is to correctly route incoming mails for userid@domain.org to the BBS while mails for userid@www.domain.org to the Web Server? Both the BBS and the Web Server runs SMTP. Thanks in advance. Regards, Andrew
