Thanks to the many people who responded! My original question was:

>>> Well, this is going to be a stupid question, but I am having trouble <<<
>>> sending mail from my Sun box to an address with simply a domain name <<<
>>> (the two most recent being user@apunix.com and user@aol.com). I can <<<
>>> send everywhere but to address that follow a format similar to the 2 <<<
>>> I mentioned above? <<<

Everyone said that I should be using /usr/lib/sendmail.mx rather than
/usr/lib/sendmail because sendmail.mx checks DNS MX records when sending
mail to an address. See, I told you it was a stupid question!! ;-)'
