Data sendmail problems - no man pages

Hi all,

I have a virtual dedicated unix server somewhere (not sure we can put names, so ain't putting it yet Smilie)

anyway, I have problems using sendmail, but before I am asking for help, I don't get ANY manpages for sendmail on my machine.

I would like to try and solve this on my own (the sendmail issue), but for now, if anyone can tell me the following:
1. Where to get the manpages from?
2. Where to put them on my machine?
3. does the sendmail version matters? and how do I find my version?

I went to sendmail.org (faq and site), and didn't find that info.
Thank you for now
