No. But it might be better.
Unless you _want_ to learn sendmail.cf syntax, which is darn confusing(for
me at least), you'll want to use the macro system, and while you could just
stick the lines I listed directly into sendmail.cf, if you regenerate sendmail.cf
from the sendmail.mc you'll lose customizations done to sendmail.cf
I believe that the options you'll want in sendmail.mc are:
FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
MASQUERADE_AS(uol.com.br)dnl
define(`confDOMAIN_NAME',`uol.com.br')dnl
Please take note that on the line
define(`confDOMAIN_NAME',`uol.com.br')dnl
^type1 type2^ ^type1 ^type2
that the `s marked type1 are backtic's(next to the key 1 on my keyboard).
and the 's marked type2 are single quotes(next to semicolon). If you screw
these up, the macro will not be included, and it doesn't even seem to warn
you. after you run m4, you can egrep the sendmail.cf too check.
egrep '^#?Dj' sendmail.cf
if it's
Djuol.com.br
you're fine, but if it's something like
#Dj$w.Foo.COM
or nothing at all, try again.
these work for sendmail 8.9.3-6 (Debian) 19991013 . They *should* work
for sendmail 8.9.x. However probably won't for sendmail 8.8.x, but who knows)
