[ILUG] Sendmail: Setting up a secondary MX

[ILUG] Sendmail: Setting up a secondary MX

Hello all,

I am trying to work out how to set up a linux box as a secondary MX server for an other 
domain. I am using sendmail and could not find the information on how to do this in the 
sendmail faq... even a search on google turned up little. I know that mail is accepted for local 
hosts if the domain name is in /etc/sendmail.cw or similar file (on my system this file is called 
/etc/mail/local_domains). Is there a similar file for domains for which we are a secondary MX? 
Something that I can put in a .mc file? Or do I have to hack the sendmail.cf file and make lots 
of changes? I dont want to go near this scary file unless I know what I'm looking for.

Thanks all for any help you can give me,
Love,



  _
