Hello !

I run sendmail 5.65b/IDA 1.4.3 at my site. I also use bind to do query-
requests for my FTP and telnet-sessions, which I do with SLIP. ( I must
confess, I'm just to lazy to tape the numbers of an Internet-adress. ;-)

My problem is, that all my mail should travel over my UUCP-Links and I
don't want sendmail to use TCP at all. ( 'cause it would everytime
create a SLIP-Link via phone and that's too expensive. )

So what is the simplest possibility to tell sendmail temporaly not to use
TCP-mailers at all and even do no hostname-lookups (!) ? May be just
commenting out the TCP-Mailers will work ?

( At the moment I have to manually disable the SLIP-Interface when I'm not
  using telnet or FTP. Not very nice. )

greetings,
		Carsten
