sendmail.cf workings...

I've defined

FEATURE(allmasquerade)

in mit.m4 and rebuilt sendmail.cf; this means that To: header
lines will be correctly rewritten as

	To: foobar@mit.edu

instead of 

	To: foobar@lola-granola.mit.edu

and suchlike. I believe that the mailhubs end up doing this rewriting
in normal situations, but if for some reason your mail doesn't 
encounter the mailhubs, this problem ocurrs.

I've also defined:

define(`confME_TOO', `True')

for purely religious reasons.

It should be noted that the SMART_HOST remains undefined, so those
using this sendmail.cf will NOT send all outgoing mail through the
mailhubs. This could easily be construed as a feature :-)
