OpenBSD has excellent manual pages and a nice FAQ.
Read:
rc.conf
sendmail
Optionally:
mailwrapper man page
mail.local man page
Anything from Oreilly
UNIX for Dummies (may not be a bad idea for you!)
Or, since you dont care to read:
/bin/ed /etc/mail/sendmail.cf
/bin/ed /etc/rc.conf
Be sure not to make backups first ;)
And telnet probably isnt a good idea. Turn it off.
Or even better, save yourself the trouble and RTFM.
This isnt a list for general unix questions.
