On many servers one can start sendmail or postfix service to send log messages to recipient email address.  But such emails are sent from root@localhost or just root or root@localhost4.localdomain4 among others.  All these domains and names would normally get rejected by sendmail.  To accept such emails following features can be enabled in '<tt>/etc/mail/sendmail.mc</tt>'
<pre>
FEATURE(`accept_unqualified_senders')dnl
FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
</pre>

One can learn about these and other sendmail configuration options at http://www.sendmail.com/sm/open_source/docs/m4/features.html
