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. -- Bill Nowicki Sun Microsystems
