Dear all,

Since I am not an absolute Unix guru, I might have to apologize for the
simplictiy of this question....

We have a DEC Alpha Server running an old sendmail version (5.6.6). I need
to deny smtp relaying for all messages except those who go to local users on
this machine.

my Questions:

a) do I have to upgrade to the lastest sendmail version to do this ? (I know
it would be good to do so anyway, but the box goes out of operation soon, so
I dont want to twiggle around too much....

b) if it is possible with the old version, can anybody tell me how to do it
?


Thank you very much in advance.

regards,

Dieter


(by the way: can someone tell me how to learn reading that funny sendmail.cf
? Is it so complicated, or am I so stupid? :)
