Our old sendmail.cf seemed to imply that "Mailer-Daemon" (and presumably
associated recapitalisations) is an address that some RFC says MUST
exist at your site. "Some-Mailer-Daemon" almost certainly doesn't. I
think the point is that it should point at *A* human who can help with
these things.
Make it configurable, if you like, or mimick the sendmail/smail
behavious of "Mailer-Daemon", but don't use "Some-Mailer-Daemon",
please!
Oh, and please do it in the default definition of "prefix", in a similar
way to my hack, so testing the existence of ${return_path} is still a
valid way of testing for error messages in filter-files, etc.
