I was having trouble with the 3.1 sendmail.cf and
since I had a fine tuned anti relaying file before
I fell back to the old sendmail.cf.

But somehow I was having different trouble with the
old sendmail.cf recently.
It began when I got rejected suddenly from a mailing list
where I appeared with my alias (CNAME) hostname.

The mailing list admin person was so kind to change
my host name in the subscription. But a couple of days that
flipped again to the old host name on my side. I have no idea
why - maybe someone messed with the nameserver database
in our domain (which I'm not administering).

Anyway I tried the new sendmail.cf file today because
when running newaliases I was told that I was using an obsolete
sendmail.cf format.

OK, I thought, let's take the new sendmail.cf.

But what a horror. My mail stream suddenly ceased down to zero.
Examining /var/log/maillog I got:
