The address of the interface for the outgoing connection

The host name of the interface for the outgoing connection

The family of the interface for the outgoing connection

${if_name}

Provides the interface's host name for the incoming connection and is especially useful for virtual hosting.

${load_avg}

Checks and reports the current average number of jobs in the run queue.

${msg_size}

Holds the value of the message size (SIZE=parameter) in an ESMTP dialogue before the message has been collected. Thereafter, the macro holds the message size as computed by sendmail and is used in check_compat. For information about check_compat, refer to Table 27-14.

${nrcpts}

${ntries}

Holds the number of delivery attempts.

${rcpt_mailer}, ${rcpt_host}, ${rcpt_addr}, ${mail_mailer}, ${mail_host}, ${mail_addr}

Holds the results of parsing the RCPT and MAIL arguments--that is, the resolved right-hand side (RHS) triplet from the mail delivery agent ($#mailer), the host ($@host), and the user ($:addr).

LOCAL_MAILER_EOL

Overrides the default end-of-line string for the local mailer.

LOCAL_MAILER_FLAGS

Adds Return-Path: header by default.

MAIL_SETTINGS_DIR

Contains the path (including the trailing slash) for the mail settings directory.

MODIFY_MAILER_FLAGS

Improves the *_MAILER_FLAGS. This macro sets, adds, or deletes flags.

RELAY_MAILER_FLAGS

Defines additional flags for the relay mailer.

FEATURE()

For details, refer to "Changes to the FEATURE() Declaration".

LOCAL_DOMAIN()

This macro adds entries to class w ($=w).

MASQUERADE_EXCEPTION()

A new macro that defines hosts or subdomains that cannot be masqueraded.

SMART_HOST()

This macro can now be used for bracketed addresses, such as user@[host].

VIRTUSER_DOMAIN() or VIRTUSER_DOMAIN_FILE()

When these macros are used, include $={VirtHost} in $=R. As a reminder, $=R is the set of host names that are allowed to relay.

FEATURE(`name', `argument')

compat_check

Argument: Refer to the example in the following paragraph.

This new FEATURE() enables you to look for a key in the access map that consists of the sender address and the recipient address and is delimited by the following string, <@>. sender@sdomain<@>recipient@rdomain is an example.

delay_checks

Argument: friend, which enables a spam-friend test, or hater, which enables spam-hater test.

A new FEATURE() that delays all checks. By using FEATURE(`delay_checks'), the rule sets check_mail and check_relay are not called when a client connects or issues a MAIL command, respectively. Instead, these rule sets are called by the check_rcpt rule set. For details, refer to the /usr/lib/mail/README file.

dnsbl

Argument: This FEATURE()accepts a maximum of two arguments:

• DNS server name

• Rejection message

A new FEATURE() that you can include multiple times to check the return values for DNS lookups. Note that this FEATURE() enables you to specify the behavior of temporary lookup failures.

enhdnsbl

Argument: domain name

A new FEATURE() that is an enhanced version of dnsbl, which enables you to check the return values for DNS lookups. For more information, refer to /usr/lib/mail/README.

generics_entire_domain

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that you can also use to apply genericstable to subdomains of $=G.

ldap_routing

Argument: For details, refer to the "Release Notes" in http://www.sendmail.org.

A new FEATURE() that implements LDAP address routing.

local_lmtp

Argument: Path name of an LMTP-capable mailer. The default is mail.local, which is LMTP capable in this Solaris release.

A FEATURE() that now sets the delivery status notification (DSN) diagnostic-code type for the local mailer to the proper value of SMTP.

local_no_masquerade

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that you can use to avoid masquerading for the local mailer.

lookupdotdomain

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that you can also use to look up the .domain in the access map.

nocanonify

Argument: canonify_hosts or nothing

A FEATURE() that now includes the following features.

Enables a list of domains, as specified by CANONIFY_DOMAIN or CANONIFY_DOMAIN_FILE, to be passed to the $[ and $] operators for canonification.

Enables addresses that have only a host name, such as <user@host>, to be canonified, if canonify_hosts is specified as its parameter.

Adds a trailing dot to addresses with more than one component.

no_default_msa

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that turns off sendmail's default setting from m4-generated configuration files to "listen" on several different ports, an implementation of RFC 2476.

nouucp

Argument: reject, which does not allow the ! token, or nospecial, which does allow the ! token.

A FEATURE() that determines whether to allow the ! token in the local part of an address.

nullclient

Argument: None

A FEATURE() that now provides the full rule sets of a normal configuration, allowing anti-spam checks to be performed.

preserve_local_plus_detail

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that enables you to preserve the +detail portion of the address when sendmail passes the address to the local delivery agent.

preserve_luser_host

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that enables you to preserve the name of the recipient host, if LUSER_RELAY is used.

queuegroup

Argument: None

A new FEATURE() that enables you to select a queue group that is based on the full email address or on the domain of the recipient.

relay_mail_from

Argument: The domain is an optional argument.

A new FEATURE() that allows relaying if the mail sender is listed as a RELAY in the access map and is tagged with the From: header line. If the optional domain argument is given, the domain portion of the mail sender is also checked.

virtuser_entire_domain

Argument: None

A FEATURE() that you can now use to apply $={VirtHost}, a new class for matching virtusertable entries that can be populated by VIRTUSER_DOMAIN or VIRTUSER_DOMAIN_FILE.

FEATURE(`virtuser_entire_domain') can also apply the class $={VirtHost} to entire subdomains.

rbl

FEATURE(`dnsbl') and FEATURE(`enhdnsbl') replace this FEATURE() that has been removed.

remote_mode

MASQUERADE_AS(`$S') replaces FEATURE(`remote_mode') in /usr/lib/mail/cf/subsidiary.mc. $S is the SMART_HOST value in sendmail.cf.
