+Note: starting with 8.15, sendmail will not ignore temporary map
+lookup failures during header rewriting, which means that DNS lookup
+problems even for headers will cause messages to stay in the queue.
+Hence it is strongly suggested to use the nocanonify feature;
+at least turning it on for the MTA, but maybe disabling it for the
+MSA, i.e., use Modifiers for DaemonPortOptions accordingly.
+As a last resort, it is possible to override the host map to ignore
+temporary failures, e.g.,
+Khost host -t
+However, this can cause inconsistent header rewriting.
