LinuxQuestions.org - adding access.db manually on sendmail.cf

I've just done a grep for access in my sendmail.cf. Here are some of the entries:

Code:

# access_db acceptance class

C{Accept}OK RELAY



# possible values for TLS_connection in access map

C{Tls}VERIFY ENCR



# Access list database (for spam stomping)

Kaccess hash -T<TMPF> /etc/mail/access



###  D: LookUpDomain -- search for domain in access database

###

###    Parameters:

###            <$1> -- key (domain name)

###            <$2> -- default (what to return if not found in db)

###            <$3> -- mark (must be <(!|+) single-token>)

###                    ! does lookup only with tag

###                    + does lookup with and without tag

###            <$4> -- passthru (additional data passed unchanged through)

There are others as well. Can you tell us what problems you were having using m4? I have the following in my sendmail.mc for the access db:

Code:

FEATURE(`access_db')dnl

I copy my sendmail.mc to sendmail-8.14.3/cf/cf and run sh ./Build sendmail.cf - that's all there is to it.
