A book by ORA on Sendmail v8.x runs over 1000+ pages. Makes a great door 
stop. ;)

Borrowed it from an admin friend of mine and was overwhelmed by the 
amount of information. If it takes over 1000 pages to explain the uses of 
sendmail then its gotten way to complitcated. But I would imagine that 
complexity makes it fairly versatile. (and not mention a bit of security 
problem in the past)
