Email routing :mail500 and sendmail

**This subject was:  "How and where to write a search filter script???????"
which is now divided  into two subjects on this mailing list:  
"Email routing :mail500 and sendmail"  and  " Email routing:
ldap-support-on-sendmail"**

To Wesley and all,

I really appreciate your offer to critique my configuration.
Unfortunately, as I am pressed for time(it's a Friday night here!),
I will post the exact details of my current mail500, 
ldap and sendmail configuration on the weekend.


In the meantime, I have a small question to do with mail500 which has been
bothering me.  The bat book says that the mail delivery agent responsible for
mail
delivery to the hub from the mail server needs to be defined under Mailer
Definitions
in sendmail.cf.

I have pasted my current mailer definitions in sendmail.cf below. The only
changes I made to
my mailer definitions was adding the "Mmail500" definition. As you can see I
have not added a
"Mhub" definition.     

Thanks. Let me know if I need a Mhub definition and I will try to configure it
using the bat book.
Oh...if the Mhub definition is necessary, do I do that on the mail hub's or
mail server's sendmail.cf?

Kristina
P.S I have changed Rule Set  for mail500 I just haven't pasted it below...that
will come with my
other configurations later.
