First, an s-mail comment:
I added the following line to /usr/lib/smail/config on Keesh:
visible_name=mit.edu
Now, when you send mail from Keesh, the default from field says:
From: username@MIT.EDU (Real Name)
Now, a sendmail comment:

Ok. I added the following lines to the sendmail Makefile's install target:
ln -s -f ../lib/sendmail /usr/bin/mailq
ln -s -f ../lib/sendmail /usr/bin/newaliases
install mailq.1 /usr/man/man1/ -m 444 -o root -g man
install newaliases.1 /usr/man/man1/ -m 444 -o root -g man
install aliases.5 /usr/man/man5/ -m 444 -o root -g man
And I added the following lines to the sendmail package list:
usr/bin/mailq
usr/bin/newaliases
usr/man/man1/mailq.1
usr/man/man1/newaliases.1
usr/man/man5/aliases.5
There was no "mailq.1" file, so I created it with:
cat > mailq.1
.so man8/sendmail.8
I would create a new sendmail package, but this would require
installing sendmail on Keesh, and I'm getting so into this s-mail
hacking. :-)
Have a nice day.
