alright I am trying to reinstall sendmail 8.11.3 on my solaris 8 (SunOS 5.8)
server. The version of sendmail that was preinstalled with it is a piece off
poop :-( And I'm not quite familiar with installing sendmail from scratch.
But anyways I'm trying to set up the config.m4 file the way i want it for
when I configure the config.cf file. Im trying to set up a virtusertables to
mape email addresses to places and such. I read through the entire cf README
file that came with teh source on sendmail. But They pretty much babble on
and on and I would just like a copy of someone's M4 file that they used
using Virtuserstable in it so I can just see how to actually type the thing
out in the m4 file. I guess I'm just a visual person. :-) Can anyone help me
out here??

FEATURE(`virtusertable',`hash /etc/mail/virtusertable')
You might want to use something like dbm instead of hash.
