I'm sure this has only been requested 5,328,912 times but I'm new to
sendmail.cf configurations and would appreciate some general information.

Environment:
             Internet and UUCP(dial-up)
             Domain   = abci.com
             Hostname = asys
             Primary named server

Questions:
          1. What should the hostname command return?
                 a. asys
                 b. asys.abci.com

          2. What should Cw (hostname) be set to?

          3. What should Dj be set to?


Any other tips would be helpful. I have sendmail.cf setup and seems
to be working but would like to know the correct way some of these
things should be done.

Thanks,
