sounds like the cc option is what he is after.. a copy of *all* emails..
I've had a look through sendmail.cf but can't see any cc option.. do you have any more info or any links on this option?
cheers

the sendmail cf option has a cc option but if I recall thats for all email. You probably dont want to do that.
Instead you may find a more flexible solution with procmail, heres a site with a bunch of procmail links

guys.. have a quick query..
my boss has asked me to setup sendmail so that any email that goes out through it from his employees gets auto'cc'd to him..
this is to be done with sendmail so that the emplyees don't know it's happening.. is this do-able?
I don't know if that's as easy as a config line.... but what you want to do is create an additional RCPT TO: <boss-e-mail-address> PRIOR to the smtp DATA command. (Note the < and > are part of the smtp syntax.)
There's no need to put the cc: in the rfc822 headers if you really want it to be done secretly. (and cc: would be seen by all recipients anyway, so it wouldn't be secret for long.)
By using RCPT TO: without putting it in the "envelope" you effectively create a "bcc:" (blind courtesy copy)
This sort of thing has other uses... all e-mail can be copied to another location to be archived... a copy of a reply could also be sent to the same archival place and effectively all e-mail communications are recorded...
