	This was my solution to that problem.  The hangup I have now is that
I host users from other domains, and when they send their mail it goes out
as the masquaraded domain name instead of keeping their domain name.  Anyone
know a quick way around this before I start hacking my .mc files?

	Incidently, in the sendmail RPM, I assume that redhat.mc is the file
used to create the sendmail.cf in the distribution. Is that a safe assumption?
