2*10221Seric		        SENDMAIL DISTRIBUTION
3*10221Seric
4*10221SericPresumably by the time you get to this READ_ME file, you will have
5*10221Sericalready read the tape in, or will have received this distribution as
6*10221Sericpart of 4.2bsd.  If you do not yet have the distribution online, read
7*10221Sericthe tape in now -- you will need about one megabyte to hold the tape.
8*10221Seric
9*10221SericThe first thing you should look at is the documentation.  The two
10*10221Sericcritical documents are "doc/intro.me" and "doc/op.me".  Read both
11*10221Sericof these before proceeding with your installation.  If you have read
12*10221Sericthese before, you should still read through the second one again
13*10221Sericanyhow, since the installation procedures change occasionally.
14*10221Seric
15*10221SericA brief tour:
16*10221Seric	FILES	  A list of the files on the tape.
17*10221Seric	Makefile  A Makefile that will do a vanilla install for you.
18*10221Seric	adb	  A set of adb(1) scripts for printing out certain
19*10221Seric		  sendmail data structures.
20*10221Seric	adm	  Administrativia.
21*10221Seric	aux	  Files that represent programs that are not really
22*10221Seric		  "part" of sendmail, or old versions of some files
23*10221Seric		  in src for use by people on other system types.
24*10221Seric	cf	  The configuration files for Berkeley, plus a few
25*10221Seric		  prototype configurations for basic installation
26*10221Seric		  types.
27*10221Seric	doc	  The documentation.
28*10221Seric	include	  The include files used by more than just the sendmail
29*10221Seric		  program itself.
30*10221Seric	lib	  Library routines used by sendmail, but not really
31*10221Seric		  "part" of sendmail itself; these might be candidates
32*10221Seric		  for libc.a.
33*10221Seric	md	  Some m4 files used to isolate machine dependencies.
34*10221Seric	src	  The source for the sendmail program itself.
35*10221Seric	test	  Some files used for testing -- mostly these are
36*10221Seric		  shell files intended as the targets for aliasing.
37*10221Seric
38*10221SericDue to my present circumstances, I am unable to provide a formal
39*10221Sericlevel of support for this system.  However, I will make whatever
40*10221Sericattempt I can to answer a reasonable number of questions.  Since
41*10221Sericthe company I am working for is not working in this area, and has
42*10221Sericindulged me tremendously in letting me work on this at all, I regret
43*10221Sericthat I am unable to accept phone calls.  I can be contacted as:
