If you configured your system to be a mail server, you can use the Administration utility to create one or more host aliases for any protocol you configure for the server. (You can also create one or more host aliases for your system when you initially configure it as a mail server; see Section : Configuring the System as a Mail Server.)
To set up a host alias for the mail server, follow these steps:

2.From the Sendmail Server Administration menu, choose Configure Sendmail Server.
3.On the Configure Sendmail Server menu, ensure that Server is selected and click on Configure.

5.On the Configure Server form, do one of the following:
•Select a new protocol from Available Protocols, and then click on Configure.
•Select a previously configured protocol from Configured Protocols, and then click on Modify.
The Configure Sendmail Protocol form is displayed.
6.Click on Host Alias.... The Host Alias form is displayed.
7.To add a new host alias, type the name of the alias in the Alias field and then click on Add. The new alias name is displayed in the Current Alias list box.
To delete an existing host alias, click on the alias name in the Current Alias list box and click on Delete.
8.When you are finished adding or deleting host aliases for this protocol, click on Submit to return to the Configure Sendmail Protocol form.
9.Click on Submit. A message is displayed confirming that the changes have been accepted. Click on OK to return to the Configure Server form.
10.On the Configure Server form, you can select another protocol to configure. If you are finished configuring protocols, click on Submit.
A message is displayed indicating that the configuration was successfully changed. Click on OK to return to the Configure Sendmail Server menu, and then click on Done.
