Summary: DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK.
Review: Bad Book for Sendmail. Almost nothing about Sendmail in here. Good intro info about everything else though. (Email Principles, Linux as a mail server, Communication & Network info, DNS, SMPT, POP3, IMAP, PPP, UUCP). I feel like I wasted my money.

Summary: DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK.
Review: I wasted my money, please don't waste yours. The book covers Sendmail in less than 30 pages and is a beginners course on how email works "generally" and how good Linux is at being a server. There is no real help offered in this book. It's sole purpose was to get money from people who are looking for a "good" book on Sendmail, especially seeing as how O'Rielly can't even make one.Anyway, The people who wrote and published this book should be neutered.

Summary: It's not sendmail book. It's just miscelleneous linux
Review: Instead of writing book about sendmail, author uses half of the book to explain material NOT related to sendmail per se. SENDMAIL.CF is the most refractory config file in the world ... which also makes sendmail the best mail router in the world too. People always asks for help about it. But the author writes about it in .. well, less than 20 pages. There's no talking about filters, no spam prevention, no nothing. What in the world does PPP have with sendmail -- than a chapter has to be dedicated to it? Conclusion: Nothing much in it could help you survive editing sendmail.cf

Summary: Good book for administrators of small Linux systems.
Review: The author is skilled at presenting underlying
principles accurately and with a minimum of jargon.
He combines a clear treatment of general principles
with many examples demonstrating how to configure mail
in many different settings. The examples will be especially useful in small organizations or businesses.

Summary: Not enough sendmail material
Review: The book was ok for a very basic overview of sendmail, but it spent far too much time explaining basic Linux. If you are configuring sendmail, you probably already have a working knowledge of Linux. I would have liked this book to have spent more time discussing configuring sendmail, I didn't find it very helpful at all.
Rating:
Summary: Nice intro
Review: Very nice explanation of the basics and the intermediate principles of sendmail. Help for all of us newbies. Specifically addresses Linux uses including directories where things should be. Absolutely recommend this book for newbie to intermediate. One of those rare techie books hard to put down.
