[comp.mail.mh] help installing mh on a sun4 needed

edr@techunix.BITNET (Ehud Reshef) (03/13/91)

Hi.

I'd like to install mh on a sun4 here on campus.
in the Installation file, in mh, there is some info about how to reconfigure the
 sendmail
so that mh would be able to send mail via a smtp server.
( something about a B line in sendmail.cf )
let's say my local ( not a internet/ bitnet node ) machine is "LOCAL"
and that ther server is techunix.technion.ac.il ( or .bitnet ... )
does anyone here knows what am I supposed to do ?
I really do not understand anything about sendmail.cf commands, and I dont want
to botch
up sendmail....

Thank.

 You probably don't have to change anything in 'sendmail.cf' for this to work.

 The documentation is somewhat misleading, especially to sendmail novices.  The
suggested changes to 'sendmail.cf' have to do with optional features such as
POP.  For a simple setup it should work as-is.
