SUMMARY 2: Generating two email messages from one

From: Morry Katz (katz@rpal.com)
Date: Mon Jan 28 1991 - 10:52:26 CST


I have been literally inundated with requests for more detailed info
on how I generate two outgoing email messages from one incoming
message by modifying sendmail.cf and sending some incoming messages to
a script. My modified version of the SunOS 4.1 sendmail.main.cf file
and the script follow:

sendmail.cf:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
############################################################
#
# Sendmail configuration file for "MAIN MACHINES"
#
# You should install this file as /etc/sendmail.cf
# if your machine is the main (or only) mail-relaying
# machine in your domain. Then edit the file to
# customize it for your network configuration.
#
# See the manual "System and Network Administration for the Sun
# Workstation". Look at "Setting Up The Mail Routing System" in
# the chapter on Communications. The Sendmail reference in the
# back of the manual is also useful.
#
# @(#)main.mc 1.17 90/01/04 SMI
#

### local info

# my official hostname
# You have two choices here. If you want the gateway machine to identify
# itself as the DOMAIN, use this line:
Dj$m
# If you want the gateway machine to appear to be INSIDE the domain, use:
#Dj$w.$m
# Unless you are using sendmail.mx (or have a fully-qualified hostname), use:
#Dj$w

# major relay mailer - typical choice is "ddn" if you are on the
# Defense Data Network (e.g. Arpanet or Milnet)
# Changed from DMsmartuucp by mjk on 9-26-90
DMddn

# major relay host: use the $M mailer to send mail to other domains
# Relay mailer set to apple.som by mjk on 9-26-90
DR apple.com
CR apple.com

# If you want to pre-load the "mailhosts" then use a line like
# FS /usr/lib/mailhosts
# and then change all the occurences of $%y to be $=S instead.
# Otherwise, the default is to use the hosts.byname map if NIS
# is running (or else the /etc/hosts file if no NIS).

# valid top-level domains (default passes ALL unknown domains up)
CT arpa com edu gov mil net org
CT us de fr jp kr nz il uk no au fi nl se ca ch my dk ar

# options that you probably want on a mailhost:

# checkpoint the queue after this many receipients
OC10

# refuse to send tiny messages to more than these recipients
Ob10

#
# General configuration information

# local domain names
#
# These can now be determined from the domainname system call.
# The first component of the NIS domain name is stripped off unless
# it begins with a dot or a plus sign.
# If your NIS domain is not inside the domain name you would like to have
# appear in your mail headers, add a "Dm" line to define your domain name.
# The Dm value is what is used in outgoing mail. The Cm values are
# accepted in incoming mail. By default Cm is set from Dm, but you might
# want to have more than one Cm line to recognize more than one domain
# name on incoming mail during a transition.
# Example:
# DmCS.Podunk.EDU
# Cm cs cs.Podunk.EDU
#
# known hosts in this domain are obtained from gethostbyname() call

# Added by mjk on 9-26-90
Dmrpal.com
Cm elements elements.rpal.com rpal.com

Fm /usr/local/etc/mail-aliases

# Version number of configuration file
# Changed from DVSMI-4.1 by mjk on 9-26-90
DVrpal-4.1.0

### Standard macros

# name used for error messages
DnMailer-Daemon
# UNIX header format
DlFrom $g $d
# delimiter (operator) characters
Do.:%@!^=/[]
# format of a total name
Dq$g$?x ($x)$.
# SMTP login message

### Options

# Remote mode - send through server if mailbox directory is mounted
OR
# location of alias file
OA/etc/aliases
# default delivery mode (deliver in background)
Odbackground
# rebuild the alias file automagically
OD
# temporary file mode -- 0600 for secure mail, 0644 for permissive
OF0600
# default GID
Og1
# location of help file
OH/usr/lib/sendmail.hf
# log level
OL9
# default messages to old style
Oo
# Cc my postmaster on error replies I generate
OPPostmaster
# queue directory
OQ/usr/spool/mqueue
# read timeout for SMTP protocols
Or15m
# status file -- none
OS/etc/sendmail.st
# queue up everything before starting transmission, for safety
Os
# return queued mail after this long

# Sender Field Pre-rewriting

# Name Canonicalization

# Internal format of names within the rewriting rules is:
# anything<@host.domain.domain...>anything
# We try to get every kind of name into this format, except for local
# names, which have no host part. The reason for the "<>" stuff is
# that the relevant host name could be on the front of the name (for
# source routing), or on the back (normal form). We enclose the one that
# we want to route on in the <>'s to make it easy to find.
