[techtalk] virtual email hosts with sendmail

[aaron]

You will probably need to:
	add the domains to sendmail.cw
		format: just list the domains on seperate lines
	add any virtual user mapping to virtual* files
		(don't recall the formatting) 
	add relay permission (by domain) to access* files
		format: domain.com  relay
	- For the virtual & relay files, you'll need to
 	  run makemap for the changes to take effect.

Btw, I think the SMTP connection problem is a seperate issue.  Check
connectivity - see if you can telnet to port 25 on the mailserver from the
desktop machine.
