Danny, Yes tried several variations of the servernames. Have used the mail alias for the solaris box, the true dns name, and just the domain e.g.
mailhost.domain.com mybox.domain.com domain.com In all cases the smtp seems to work - ie James recieves the messages, (i've tried emailing to [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [EMAIL PROTECTED] )yet they just get spooled. I've left the other config files much as there are. Could some of the mailets be doing something here?
