Larry, or others,

My knowledge of this area is small but slowly enlarging...

Looking on google I eventually found an apparent solution of ...

This is a sendmail setup (on the machine running majordomo):

         define(`SMTP_MAILER_MAXMSGS',`15')

This tells sendmail to limit outgoing messages to 15 addresses per
connection with target system - even though majordomo might give
sendmail a
message with 400 addresses.

I am struggling to make this happen...

A.
Does this seem reasonable?

B.
Anyone know how to actually implement this

When I amend cobalt.mc and then try and "m4" it as instructed here...

http://www.sendmail.org/m4/intro.html

nothing happens and the raq complains it can't find cf.m4 (though
appears to be in the expected location)

Anyone any experience of sendmail etc, I hear it is a nightmare...
