- I am running on RedHat 7.3 with the sendmail that installed with it.
- (rpm -q sendmail gives me sendmail-8.11.6-15)
- 
- I have these entries in my virtualusertable:
- webmaster at parasailworkshop.com  neil
- @parasailworkshop.com   parasailWorkshop
- 
- The virtualusertable.db is up to date.
- 
- There is a user account parasailWorkshop on my system.
- 
- I dont know why it would not work.

	Is parasailworkshop.com in class w? (aka, is it listed
in /etc/mail/local-host-names, or /etc/mail/sendmail.cw -- you
should have one of the two files..)
