Any chance the instructions on the James website for using James with
Sendmail on Linux systems has been (will be) updated soon? It appears

me current info on what needs to be done? Thanks...

Never mind, I dug into it and figured out how to get James and the new
version of sendmail to work together. If anyone else wants to know how
(for SuSE), or someone wants to update the James website, email me and I
can draw up a rough outline of what I did. But I fear it is pretty
distro specific, as I am using SuSE10.3 (with sendmail ver 8.14.1-53,
and James ver 2.3.1 )
In a nutshell, sendmail now has a pretty complex macro layer that is
used to build the sendmail.cf config file. On top of that, SuSE supplies
a watered down custom config file that gets processed (each time
Yast/SuSEconfig gets executed) which augments the macro processing layer
and produces a new sendmail.cf file. Most of the configuration required
could be handled by the SuSE config file but I did have to hack one of
the macro processing files also. All in all NOT really easy, sendmail is
even more obtuse and difficult to understand now, and I have no idea how
a generic set of instructions can be given that will apply to other
distros.
Marc....
sendmail has the m4 macro layer since years: the cf file is generated
from the m4 file.
So if you can help us updating the documentation according to what you
found it would really help: you probably should check what are the
changes in the sendmail.mc file.
Thank you,
Stefano
