SUMMARY:RE: sendmail and DNS

[Jangalwa, Raj]

Thanx a lot to
Roger A. Prata [rprata at crcg.edu]
joseph lang [tcnojl1 at earthlink.net]
Pat Masterson [bat at grumman.com]

They helped in understanding and also directing me in the direction. It came
out that I can setup an MX record in DNS for any domain I want to receive
mail for. 
( per pat) "The RHS has the real name of the mailserver.". 

And also I need to create a "zone file and a .db file for EACH domain."
(roger).

and in each of them I add records 
testdomain.com.	IN	MX	10	mailserver.testdomain.com

testdomainmail.com.	IN	MX	10	mailserver.testdomain.com


I also have to configure sendmail "Class w" and add the domains there, so
that I can receive mails from all the domain.

Thanx to everyone
