RE: Sendmail - smart_host not working?

["Christopher Thorjussen" <christopher thorjussen secode com>]

JUST what I want! :)

Should the FEATURE og into submit.mc or sendmail.mc?

$m = what?
(I'm just a complete sendmail newbie)

If you're just trying to send mail out, you don't need a sendmail
server. It would be sufficient to run sendmail as a null client. So all
you'd likely need in your mc file is

FEATURE(`nullclient',`$m')

So no one else could send *to* this machine but anyone on it could send
out.
