Er, oops!  Well, you got that right!  Thanks to both you and the other
gentleman who posted, I got it working.

I did have one other little interesting thing happen - if you do not
have the aliases database initialized (sendmail -bi), it can take
a VERY long time to get sendmail started (like, 5 1/2 minutes!).

That made the confusion factor even better :-)   Oh, well, its working
now, thanks very much to the net!
