Table of All -d Categories

Because debugging is so closely tied to the internals of sendmail, we no longer cover all debugging switches in detail. In the reference section at the end of this chapter we cover, in detail, only those debugging switches that are useful to the administrator. In Table 16-4 we list all the debugging switches by category, regardless of their usefulness, and give a brief description of each. If you need more detail about those we do not document, we suggest you use sendmail/TRACEFLAGS as a guide to the appropriate source code files.
