Using m4 is just one way (though the preferred one) of configuring
sendmail. Knowing m4 is in no way a prerequisite for configuring
sendmail correctly - the cf/README tells you everything you need to
know. Sendmail's config and m4 files are also both ASCII text files -
what else would they be?

The old saw about sendmails config file format is really only trotted
out these days by people who never use it.
