James,
You can cheat if you like..
Send the vault information to your local corporate e-mail account.
Then if using Outlook you can set up an auto-forward rule.
Otherwise.. my sendmail knowledge is limited and rusty but...
The email they receive is probably coming from
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. You can look into using /etc/aliases or
editing the DM line in the /etc/sendmail.cf for masquerading. Then you can
make the mail look like it is from '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' One thing to keep
in mind is that if you do get to a point where the TSM server is sending the
mail out as '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' then your exchange server is going to need
to know who that really is, so it can deliver mail to that address.
I will stop there because the only way I've ever made progress with
sendmail issues is through trial and lots of error. I hope this at least
gives you a starting point.
Thanks,
Jon Martin

Subject: TSM Sendmail and AIX
I know this is not a TSM topic but what the hey.
We currently use AIX sendmail to mail copies of our vault list generated
from TSM to our off-site tape handler.
With the recent rash of viruses being sent by email, this company will not
accept email from a sender they can not do a "reverse DNS lookup" on.
And they can't do a 'reverse DNS lookup" on the mail they are getting from
my TSM server.
Our mail guys,( who are like me and don't know much about sendmail) tell me
that there should be a way of supplying a from address that is more public
in the mail we are automatically sending from my TSM AIX server.
For the life of me I can't find this in any of the manuals I've searched.
anyone have any ideas?
