The Sendmail Tutorial / written by yours truly, R a v e N (blacksun.box.sk) *============================================================================* version 2.1, 22/9/99 Note: whenever you see something like this: blah(1), it means that if you don't understand the meaning of the word blah there's an explanation for it just for you, located at the newbies corner on section 1. Note 2: if you're having a hard time reading this page because you have to scroll to the right whenever a long line comes, it's probably because you're not using "word wrapping". Most UNIX and Windows text editors do this by themselves. To activate word wrapping on Microsoft Notepad, simply go to Edit and then click on "Word wrapping".
