RE: [ilugd] sendmail problem :(

[Gurpreet Singh Sachdeva]

>>>sendmail is unable to get the MX record of the domain

This is the case when the mail server is unable to send mails on a
single domain and its working perfect on other domains.

 
## but when I try sending mail to *anywhere* outside say abc.com it says
## connecting to abc.com via esmtp


Then DNS may not be the prime issue rather relaying can be a problem.
Contact your ISP, if they have properly given a relay to your IPs.

Or you can make your own SMTP server without using the ISP one.

Edit /etc/sendmail.cf and change 127.0.0.1 --> Public IP
And vi /etc/mail/relay-domains and give the IP block of your network.
You can use this as your SMTP server.

HTH...
