Very Computer

My problem is that I can't get sendmail to masquerade neither envelopes nor
addresses. I think this is done by ruleset 94. I have set the
/etc/mail/genericstable and hashed with "makemap hash genericstable <
genericstable" from /etc/mail, and the generics.db is created, but
addresses aren't rewritten.

How can I test this, as well as the genericstable database itself? Taking a
look at sendmail.cf, I have the lines with the definition (the K line) and
in ruleset 94 I see the calls to the genericstable database, but for some
reason it doesn't work.

I use debian woody and sendmail V10/Berkeley (that's the value assigned by
macros in sendmail.cf).

I use "sendmail -bt", and then type the ruleset (94) and the mail address,
but returns unchanged, when it should be masqueraded. I have tried this
example in three computers and I can't get to see the address rewritten.

Thanks in advance.

testing:

BTW genericstable does not touch envelope recipients
(it is virtusertable task).

I may disagree with the following *random epigram* :
Only those who leisurely approach that which the masses are busy about
can be busy about that which the masses take leisurely.
