[cobalt-users] genericstable, sendmail.cf and web mail on my RaQ4i

[Jerry Kemp <cobalt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have just set up the mailman web mail package on my RaQ4i.  So far,
all testing has gone well.  Although this is a relatively new system,
I am already running into duplicate user issues for virtual domains.

For incoming mail, the /etc/mail/virtualusertable is working well for
me.  Now I am trying to deal with re-writing outgoing mail.  It appears
that the way to deal with this is to create a /etc/mail/genericstable
file and db.

To do this, this FEATURE set would need to be supported in the
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf file, in which it is not.  This issue is
not address in my manual.  Also, I have done a search at the
Sun-Cobalt knowledgebase.  I did not fine anything which directly
addresses this.  This was as close as I got:

bin/kbase.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_sid=hZOJJ_Vf&p_lva=&p_refno=010518-009635&
p_created=990212301&p_sp=cF9ncmlkc29ydD0mcF9yb3dfY250PTIxJnBfc2VhcmNoX3RleHQ9c2VuZG1haWwmcF9zZWFyY2hfdHlwZT0zJnBfcHJvZF9sdmwxPX5hbnl_JnBfcHJvZF9sdmwyPX5hbnl_JnBfY2F0X2x2bDE9fmFueX4mcF9jYXRfbHZsMj1_YW55fiZwX3NvcnRfYnk9ZGZsdCZwX3BhZ2U9MQ*

If someone could point me to another official Cobalt page which
addresses this issue so I can RTFM, it would be greatly appreciated.

Short of an official answer, it looks like I can modify the

/usr/lib/sendmail-cf/cf/cobalt.mc

to add support for the genericstable feature and then create a new
/etc/mail/sendmail.cf file which should get me where I need to be.
Does anyone see anything wrong with this approach other that it
will void my support (yet again)??

TIA,

Jerry
