Bind outgoing sendmail to a certain interface

Hi!

Is there a setting that allows me to tell sendmail to use a certain
interface or sender ip address for outgoing connections?


Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Yes.


DAEMON_OPTIONS( Modifier=b )

However, watch out if you're running an IPv6 enabled node and the destination is
IPv4 only.

The above makes sendmail send mail via the same interface it has been received.
[ It may be what Frank *really* wanted ]

The answer for the original question is given below:
CLIENT_OPTIONS(`Addr=aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd')
