hm, I did a standard clean install of 8.9.3 on my SPARC 4 and it was
already capable of doing this.  Just put:

DMfoo3.com

into my .cf and it worked.  Has this changed from older versions of
sendmail, perhaps?

BTW, survey question for all you Sendmail people - how many of you, when
installing a mail server, actually go and rebuild a new sendmail.cf from
the m4 macros?  How many of you just use the defaults and do site-specific
modifications?  If you do both, when/why do you pick one method over the
other?

Just curious :)
