Shame on all of you who responded.
Back when I started in UNIX (thumbs hooked in suspenders) they 
said you weren't a UNIX admin until you mastered sendmail.

I'm kidding of course.

But it does bug me a little that I've never mastered it after 12 years
as an admin.

I know it works great and powers most of the internet mail, but that
conf file.  What the hell?
And that bat book, what the hell?

Part of the fun of UNIX/Linux is mastering something cryptic but
sendmail
is over the top.

As I'm new in this group, I'll repeat that this was 
not aimed at Chris, I was just blabbing.
