[comp.mail.sendmail] Need help with debug

newsgst@sequoia.UUCP (Jennifer Joy) (10/20/89)

  I am a novice to sendmail and have just reached the point where being able
  to debug would be very nice.  So I look it up in my trusty guide, and it 
  says "for a complete list of the available debug flags you will have
  to look at the code."  
      <lights a small match> 
	 But Sequent, in their great and mysterious way decided that they
	 didn't need to include the source.
      <blows it out>

 So, I am in sort of a pickle and I would appreciate a copy of the debug
 information.  Any recommendations for debug levels and which task a 
 certain level is suited for is also appreciated.  Thanks.

Jennifer

I have been fighting with sendmail for 3 or 4 years now in earnest, 
and running a mail gateway -- sometimes even successfully :-).  Anyway,
I have never had need for the various debug levels, etc.  I do everything
with sendmail -bt and test the rule sets etc.

You probably can also.  (I mean if *I* can, anyone can...)
