We've had sendmail set up for years to do virtual stuff by hacking
sendmail.cf directly.  However, on our new servers, I'm trying to do
things "the sendmail way" by using the m4 macros, etc.  We're using
3.2-Release.

The incoming virtualization is working fine.  However, I can't get the
outgoing remapping to work at all, e.g. if user@machine.domain sends email
it appears that way instead of being rewritten as name@otherdomain.

In my m4 .mc file, I have:

  FEATURE(`genericstable', `btree /etc/genericstable')dnl
  GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/sendmail.cG')dnl

which generates this in the sendmail.cf

  Kgenerics btree /etc/genericstable

and

  FG/etc/sendmail.cG

My /etc/genericstable file contains

  testcase	office@testcase.com

and the /etc/sendmail.cG has

  testcase.com

I issue the commands:

  makemap -d btree genericstable.db < genericstable

Now, according to the docs at sendmail.org, any email sent by the user
testcase should have the From header rewritten as office@testcase.com.
However, it remains as testcase@f2.addy.com

BTW, I've tried changing the genericstable file from btree to hash with no
effect.

Does anyone know what I've missed here?

Cliff
