If you use NFS to mount the mailbox directory in SunOS 4.0, then
you should put the line "OR" in your sendmail.cf file.  This causes
the server to send outgoing mail through the server, so the sender
lines are correct.  There is such a line in the sendmail.cf files
on the 4.0 release, and this option is described on page 483, Chapter
18 - Sendmail Installation and Operation, in the System and Network
Administration manual.
