I have a stock Sys V machine, with sockets extensions (Convergent S640,
OS rev 5.2.25).  I installed smail and deliver with no problems and we 
have been using it successfully for a year.  We are ethernetted internally 
and are using rlogin, ftp regularly.  But we have not had the smtp mail 
transport.  I recently ported the Berkeley sendmail to this machine and 
have sucessfully sent/received mail to/from Suns, Vaxen (running 
Wollongong), and Interactive Unix boxes.

Here's the question:  What is the configuration I should set up using
svbinmail(/bin/mail), /bin/lmail, /usr/bin/deliver, /bin/{smail,rmail}, 
and /usr/lib/sendmail ?

1) svbinmail (/bin/mail) calls rmail who calls sendmail who calls deliver.

2) svbinmail calls sendmail who calls smail (for offsite address) and who
	calls deliver (for local addresses).  rmail is a link to sendmail.

3) any number of other configurations...

I can eventually arrive at a solution, but i KNOW that someone has a 
recommendation for doing this correctly.  And I don't want to create a
nightmare for my sysadmin (who is already losing his hair!).

Help?

Thanks,
paul
