the easiest thing to check right now is the output of "hostname". also, i *think* that the periodic scripts send mail to root (i.e., they don't add the domain), so perhaps sendmail is adding this?I recently change the hostname of my FreeBSD host to remove a hyphen from the name (i.e. skrap-node to skrapnode) Since then, all of the periodic output scripts send their mail output to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Only the mail delivery failures make it to my inbox. Mail works fine for all users, this just affects the periodic scripts.
I have tried grep'ing for the incorrect hostname in the
/etc/periodic/blah... But haven't found anything.
try:
# sendmail -bv root
if that is the case, check /etc/mail/sendmail.cf for the hardcoded hostname, or give sendmail a bit of -HUP (make restart in /etc/mail)
hope this helps
