		+	Basically you add an option line to your sendmail.cf file. The option is called "DaemonPortOptions".
		+	This option that came out in Sendmail 8.10, it let's sendmail listen on multiple ports without having to run a separate sendmail instance for each port.
		+	When the DaemonPortOptions is put in your sendmail.cf (or added it to your master sendmail.mc), the sendmail daemon listens on the ports specified.
		+	i.e. And exact line
		+
		+	O DaemonPortOptions=Name=MSA
		+	O DaemonPortOptions=Name=FredMail, Addr=134.5.175.4, Port=580, Modifiers=bh
		+
		+	Some examples if you want to make the changes to your master /etc/mail/sendmail.cf :
		+
		+	O DaemonPortOptions=Name=FredMail, Addr=134.5.175.5, Port=580, Modifiers=bh
		+	O DaemonPortOptions=Name=quickiemart.com, Addr=smtp.quickiemart.com
		+	O DaemonPortOptions=Name=MTA, Addr=134.5.175.5, Port=smtp, Modifiers=bh
		+	O DaemonPortOptions=Port=580, Name=MSA, M=E
		+
		+	Configuration options:
		+	DaemonPortOptions=Name=name, Modifiers=modifiers, Family=family, Address=addr, Port=port, Listen=listen, SndBufSize=size, RcvBufSizesize
		+
		+	The example below shows the lines required to modify your master sendmail.mc so you can have a good template for your mail server.
		+	Remember to recompile you sendmail.mc if you modify it: m4 sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf
		+
		+	*
		+
		+	Some examples if you want to make the changes to your master /etc/mail/sendmail.mc :
		+
		+	DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=FredMail, Addr=134.5.175.5, Port=580, Modifiers=bh')
		+	DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=quickiemart.com, Addr=smtp.quickiemart.com')
		+	DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=MTA, Addr=134.5.175.5, Port=smtp, Modifiers=bh')
		+	DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=580, Name=MSA, M=E')
		+
		+
		+	When you are done making your changes do not forget to restart your mail server:
		+
		+	/etc/mail/sendmail stop
		+	/etc/mail/sendmail start
