I am looking for a good sendmail tutorial. I have recently set up a new internet web site and want to add e-mail capabilities. Can someone ponit me to a good sendmail configuration / tutorial.

And or any suggestions as this is will be my first sendmail setup.

I am a sendmail newbie

Hrm, a good sendmail config guide.... Well,... There is a book out there called, I think "Sendmail for Linux" - its a red and white book about an inch and a half thick.

There is always the O'Reilley Sendmail book (the infamous Bat Book) - but that is really more of a reference book...

sendmail.org should have some good stuff specific to 8.11.2 (or which ever version you are using).

If you are setting up just a basic email server, sendmail out of the box is pretty good and easy to setup, the only thing you might consider is taking a look at the access.db information -- the docs that come with the source code are extremely helpful for specific help.

Hope this helps,
Paul
