-Presumably by the time you get to this READ_ME file, you will have
-already read the tape in, or will have received this distribution as
-part of 4.2bsd. If you do not yet have the distribution online, read
-the tape in now -- you will need about one megabyte to hold the tape.
-
-The first thing you should look at is the documentation. The two
-critical documents are "doc/intro.me" and "doc/op.me". Read both
-of these before proceeding with your installation. If you have read
-these before, you should still read through the second one again
-anyhow, since the installation procedures change occasionally.
-
-A brief tour:
- FILES A list of the files on the tape.
- Makefile A Makefile that will do a vanilla install for you.
- adb A set of adb(1) scripts for printing out certain
- sendmail data structures.
- adm Administrativia.
- aux Files that represent programs that are not really
- "part" of sendmail, or old versions of some files
- in src for use by people on other system types.
- cf The configuration files for Berkeley, plus a few
- prototype configurations for basic installation
- types.
- doc The documentation.
- include The include files used by more than just the sendmail
- program itself.
- lib Library routines used by sendmail, but not really
- "part" of sendmail itself; these might be candidates
- for libc.a.
- md Some m4 files used to isolate machine dependencies.
- src The source for the sendmail program itself.
- test Some files used for testing -- mostly these are
- shell files intended as the targets for aliasing.
-
-The following are the known major problems and their Problem Report
-number:
-
-012, 043 Names of files and programs cannot have upper case letters
- in them -- these get mapped to lower case due to the
- case mapping feature.
-178 Because of the different syntaxes used in envelopes versus
- headers, we will occasionally allow syntactically incorrect
- headers go out.
-226 Quote interpretation may be incorrect -- this is not well
- defined in the protocols.
-
-Due to my present circumstances, I am unable to provide a formal
-level of support for this system. However, I will make whatever
-attempt I can to answer a reasonable number of questions. Since
-the company I am working for is not working in this area, and has
-indulged me tremendously in letting me work on this at all, I regret
-that I am unable to accept phone calls. I can be contacted as:
