the page is probably referring to /etc/mail/sendmail.cf which is the runtime configuration file for sendmail. you should not modify this file directly, instead modify /etc/mail/sendmail.mc (the format is signficantly different). as far as splitting the mail into different files 1 per file, that would probably be done on the LDA side(local delivery agent), but LDA configuration may require some MTA(mail transport agent - e.g. sendmail) configuration. i use cyrus and it splits all messages into their own files. pine cannot directly access them tho(nothing can) the only way to access it is by logging into the POP or IMAP server. nate
