That aside, you need to tell your mailer what domain to slap on the end of unqualified mailing addresses. I think you want to add these two lines to your sendmail.mc then regerate the .cf: MASQUERADE_AS(`beutler.se') FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope') ... but I'm sure sendmail gurus will step in to correct me.
