Hey Amos, I'm doing alright, I've just been insanely busy. Also, I've been playing around with Gnome and Enlightenment a lot lately. To answer your question. What you'll need to do is edit the file /etc/sendmail.cw and add the name of your host to the file. Then once your done, restart sendmail like this ps auxw | grep [s]endmail | awk {'print $2'} | xargs kill -HUP This is all on one line. Basically it lists all the processes, searches for the line with sendmail in it and sends the second column of that line to argument to kill -HUP. the brackets around the s in sendmail are to protect grep process from getting killed.
