Using Sendmail with MS Exchange

[Potter, G M (Greg)]

I don't modify any system files I make an entry in the DNS server for my domain such that nslookup for mail host returns something like:
# nslookup mailhost
Server:  dnsserver.mydomain.com
Address:  192.168.123.50

Name:    mailserver.mydomain.com
Address:  192.168.123.12
Aliases:  mailhost.okc.moc.com
