We run a coloured books/SMTP mixed sendmail system on our HPs by ignoring the
HP supplied sendmail generating procedures.  I can supply working
sendmail.cf files for a "gateway" machine on janet and SMTP and a slave
config for other systems including HP SUN Apollo etc.

I wondser if what we really need is an Edinburgh University Coloured Books
user group as Ed supply the software to most UK unix vendors and the config
problems are universal. 

We are likely soon though to go over to a system with a PP based mail
distributor on the JNT sun system with local delivery by means not
quite decided!!

PS HPs support in the Uk is fine as long as you dont run coloured books
or an ex Apollo system!
