Since they have the default Athena sendmail.cf, I believe that it'll
be sufficient to have an account in /etc/passwd, or to diddle the
aliases file directly. They may also need to change NEWMAILCF in
/etc/athena/rc.conf and possibly some other things, but I don't know
if anything is actually using that variable. For more info, you can
just look at the mkserv add scripts for mail in the mkserv locker.,
but here's the current version:
#!/bin/sh
# $Id: mail.add,v 1.2 92/05/09 16:23:06 epeisach Exp $
# $Revision: 1.2 $
# $Platforms: vax,rt,rsaix,decmips$
cat >> ${LOGFILE} << EOF
===> Remember to check sendmail.cf to make sure it does what you expect.
EOF
echo "conf SENDMAIL true" >> ${CONFCNG}
exit 0
(note lack of sun support; Jonathon had to do some work to get it to
work on TOW, I believe.)
