Hi,

I have a standalone Linux box at home and get on the Net through a
dial-up connection. I do have DMmantraonline.com in my /etc/sendmail.cf.
Everything used to work just fine up until about 2 weeks ago (I suppose
when Mantra changed their config to stop relaying).

My mails don't bounce from Mantra. In fact, they never leave my
machine's mail queue. The only way I can send mails through Mantra now
is by pointing my mail client directly at del1.mantraonline.com.
sendmail complains with the message "Deferred: Name server:
del1.mantraonline.com: host name lookup failure".

> protocol :)  Post some contents of your /var/log/maillog

Here are some of the messages in my mail log:
