Re: MX records and Sendmail.cf with Redhat



well
yes u can point all the mx records of diff domains to the same box
or u can have a mail box wich the mx record points at and sends the mail
there.
like me i have 
cheech        IN MX 10 routing.relic.net
my box is cheech but its a firewalled machine so only routing its allowed
in my mail port so routing is setup to route all incoming cheech mail to
me while the mx record makes the cheech mail go to routing..
donno if this is what u mean.. but i guess i can serv of a sample

Is there something that also needs to be done in the sendmail.cf file to accomodate this?  Also, can multiple MX entries be made for different domains pointing to the same host machine?  For example:

Essentially, what I am trying to achieve is being able to host multiple domains with Apache (using virtual servers) AND also being able to accept mail for these 'hosted' domains.
