  Have another look at sendmail/IDA.  If you prepare a running system for your
users with a MAILERTABLE, possibly a PATHTABLE, and with PSEUDONYMS
defined to be a file name, then they could do almost everything they would
ever need simply by adding additional local aliases to the PSEUDONYMS file,
or changing one or two entries in MAILERTABLE or PATHTABLE for changing
routes.  Then a 'make' would change everything that needed to be changed.
They would never need to understand anything about configuring sendmail.
