I have found that this problem occurs due to following SPAM RULES in sendmail which I had put earlier just to stop the users for not to send the mails from Official mail ID's [From their PC - mail configured in outlook / Netscape] to their personal mail ID's. in /etc/mail/access hotmail.com 550 U can not send mails to hotmail.com yahoo.com 550 U can not send mails to yahoo.com yahoo.co.in 550 U can not send mails to yahoo.co.in rediffmail.com 550 U can not send mails to rediffmail.com indiatimes.com 550 U can not send mails to indiatimes.com But now it is applying on incoming mail also from these domains. Any Idea by which I can stop to send the mail's to these domains but not to incoming mails ? Thanking you, Sandeep _______________________________________________ ilugd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd
