7/14    Help sendmail experts. I forward email from my own domain to
        http://gmail.com. I have never had any problem until recently. The problem
        happens only when eBay sends an email to my domain (as
        member@ebay.com). I receive the mail on my domain/my machine, and
        when it tries to forward to gmail, I get the following:

12/29   There have been a lot of complaints regarding soda reliability and
        users not volunteering their time and effort to help. Obviously,
        it wouldn't make sense for every user to be given root access so
        they can volunteer. Instead, why don't we use motd for people to
        contribute concrete suggestions (not just to start flame wars) to
        improve soda reliability and security? I'll start:

9/9     After rotating my /var/log/mail.* files and restarting postfix,

8/5     I just want to take this fine opportunity and say, FUCK sendmail.
        It is difficult to configure and its debugging facility totally
        blows. I can't believe how braindead sendmail config is, not to
        mention its sucky security. Fuck sendmail, use postfix instead.
        I got postfix running in a jiffy and I didn't even have to go
        through 800 pages of sendmail manpage. Fuck sendmail and

8/3     I'm trying to add virtual forwarding, by adding a file called
        /etc/mail/virtusertable that forwards from user "test@mydomain.com"
        to "joeblow". I also added the line "FEATURE(`virtusertable')dnl"
        in sendmail.mc. Lastly, I did a make, then restarted sendmail. However
        it is not working. How do I diagnose the problem?

8/4     In sendmail on Linux, how do I write a rule which will quietly discard
        e-mail sent to nonexistent users? Default behavior is to bounce
        the mail back, but in the case of SPAM the From: address doesn't
        exist. I'd rather just toss such mail.

8/4     After trying to get sendmail's virtusertable to work for several
        hours, I've given up and decided to use exim4 instead. I've followed
        the following URL for exim4's equivalent of virtusertable, but now
        wondering how I can specify "error: User Known" and email
        nullification inside my new /etc/exim/virtusertable?

8/5     I'm trying to setup procmail so that when I send email out, I can set my
        domain to be any of the 3 I own. However, sendmail keeps masquerading my
