Once you save the *.mc file, do this to build a proper sendmail.cf, update all your database configs, install and restart sendmail: cd /etc/mail make all install restart This should take only about 3 seconds and will give you console feedback so watch for any errors in syntax. Then: tail /var/log/maillog So you can verify that everything started up properly. Please note that I use 5.x (but same version of sendmail as you) so it is possible that the exact steps I outline above will be slightly different on a 4.x system (sorry but I don't know for sure -- been so long since I used 4.x). You can always check the Makefile in /etc/mail to verify this. The basic point is that you merely need to update your *.mc, rebuild it into a proper *.cf, install and restart sendmail. Cheers, EB
