Sendmail mailertable troubles

[Al Cooper]

I can't use and mc features to fix this problem.  Sun has added many
"features" to the Cobalt RaQ550 that make for a nice GUI but leave out many
"features" for administrators.  For example they do not keep the cobalt.mc
file up to date when they make changes to the sendmail.cf file.  So
re-compiling sendmail could do more harm than good.  Also the mailertable
feature is not in the box by default.  I had to add it manually to the
sendmail.cf file.

Correct me if Im wrong all you pro's but isnt there an option in sendmail.mc
that you can comment out so it doesnt use MX for internal dilivery. Cant
