Still offtopic... sorry guys.  Is there any such DontUseHostname option or
anything?  I had a problem that sendmail puts your hostname
(/bin/hostname) in class W, and was causing problems trying to run two
instances of sendmail on the same box (mail loops back to me).  I ended up
writing the start script to change hostname, start sendmail, change
hostname back.  Any ideas?
