In several of the sendmail.cf's I've got in front of me here, coming from
all over the country, I find a mailer called "tcp-ok".  Its definition is
identical to that of the "tcp" mailer.

In one of the configuration files, it is accompanied by a comment:

	# "tcp-ok" mailer bypasses the uucp->arpa forwarding check

I see no mention of this in any of the sendmail documentation.  Is this for
real?
