My original question concerned the `DM' line in the sendmail.cf file
for Sun sendmail under SunOS 4.1.2. The answers fell into two
categories:
o People who thought I meant Berkely sendmail and told me about
domain masquerading (good info on masquerading, too, just not what
I was looking for :), and
o People who told me about relay mailer types.
As for the second, the M macro takes on a few possible values which
depend on the network the machine is on. One possible value is `ddn',
which is for Defense Data Network (e.g., ArpaNet, MilNet). The
standard value is `ether', which is what the cf file in question
actually had. What `ether' means is given later in the file where
rules are built. (I think---I still say sendmail.cf is voodoo...)
