I >think< I've read somewhere, either in the voluminous sendmail
docs or in an RFC, that root can't - or perhaps shouldn't - be
masqueraded.
I just scanned some RFCs now and don't find that.
Ah - I found it in the documentation.
------------
There are always users that need to be "exposed" -- that is, their
internal site name should be displayed instead of the masquerade name.
Root is an example (which has been "exposed" by default prior to
8.10). You can add users to this list using
EXPOSED_USER(`usernames')
This adds users to class {E}; you could also use
EXPOSED_USER_FILE(`filename')
------------
It's easy to get lost in the documentation - the O'Reilly book
is about 1200 pages long. The docs at www.sendmail.org are
readily searchable, once you find them.
