Customer comments on this selection.
 This is more like a reference manual
This book probably covers most information regarding Sendmail but is not meant for someone trying to learn how to configure sendmail. Most chapters have a small introduction and then go on to explain each feature/aspect in detail. For a beginner, it is difficult to connect the dots (features) and understand how to configure / run sendmail.
 Mandatory
If you take care of Sendmail servers, you should have this book. I've been using this application for almost 10 years, and I still learn new things all the time, and this book is primarily where I get my answers. Highly recommended.
There has to be better...
I admire O'Reilly books for their uncanny ability to hook me into a lot of advance technologies. I desperately need to get a handle on sendmail for basic configuration, so naturally I come to O'Reilly.

br /I investigated this book several times, and though it looks like a great awesome and essential reference, it simply does nothing for those trying to get off the ground. I think it is only for advanced and seasoned sendmail administrators, but for those trying to get a handle on sendmail, this is not the book.
br /
br /In contrast, I have books on postfix and exim mail systems by O'Reilly and these books are decent in getting you started. I am saddened that this is mainly a reference and not like other O'Reilly books. The book could have been called "send mail, the definitive reference".
 Don't limit yourself
This is a great book if you are seasoned Sendmail admin with good C programming skills. I give 3 starts because it is so hard to understand.pI've been using sendmail for 3 years and I just tried Qmail and Postfix. I have chosen Postfix because it's so darn efficiant and configurable.pViktor Duchovni, is a great help on the online community and the online docs are just as detaild as this sendmail book.pIf you are stuck on sendmail then get this book. pBut try Qmail and Postfix if you can...pBTW... RedHat lets you choose between Postfix or Sendmail. That means a lot to me.
the sendmail bible
If you are a mail admin and don't use this book, you are either doing it wrong or are a genius.pAnyone who is serious about sendmail administration and configuration must use this book.psendmail is far to complex to be used w/o a great reference such as this.
