Does linuxconf always mess-up Sendmail? Everytime I log into linuxconf, Sendmail changes the /etc/mail/access file and deletes my relay-accounts. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Sendmail, and NOT touched linuxconf and it works fine. But I am wanting to setup Virtual Hosting with Sendmail for multiple domains that I have registered, and the only way I know how to do it is thru linuxconf.

Any suggestions?

its not a fix, but running (w/o quotes) "chattr +i someFile" on some files will set the immutable bit, so they cant be changed. "chattr -i someFile" to undo this before editing.

How do you enable mail forwarding in Sendmail? The reason that my Virtual Host is not working is because I went in thru Webmin and created an alias called "webmaster" It would not let me create "webmaster@somewhere.com" So now, ALL webmaster accounts that hit that box go to my aliased account. I CANNOT use webmaster for ANY other domain hosted on that box. Even after I removed the webmaster account from the Aliases Section, it still doesn't work. I went so far as to uninstall and reinstall Sendmail, and stil nothing. So I would not suggest using this "Aliases" option in Webmin.

Do you have any idea how to create a mailbox, and forward to to another box without using linuxconf? I would rather not have 5 email boxes in my email program going at the same time.

Thanks
