It's actually a pretty simple hack to sendmail to name the file based on the destination domain, and a little more complicated to make it queue run only on that domain. Actually, I have a slightly different gross hack I've used to avoid hacking the sendmail queueing itself (still have to hack ETRN, though): o Under cron, grep the domain(s) you ETRN for out of the header entries in the queue, and move them to another (domain specific) directory. o Connect the ETRN up for the domain so that it uses the -oQ <domain specific directory> You just have to be sure to process it frequently enough (or at the right times) to avoid introducing a delivery latency. Then ETRN never runs except on files queued for a particular domain. Terry Lambert terry@lambert.org --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
