Okay all set. I managed to get it working.

Now how do I know that my mail is being filtered? Where does my spam
mail go to?

Thanks,

Jimmy Hayes

Can you telnet internally to the smtp port and get an answer?  Is your
mail
server dual homed (one public address nic and one internal address nic)?
Possibly your sendmail is only listening on the public address card.
You
can check this by typing "netstat -natp".  You should see a line
something
like:
tcp 0 0 10.5.5.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 781/sendmail: accep
That first IP address shows what interface sendmail is listening on.
Usually the problem is the opposite of what you describe, though --
local
mail is accepted but not from outside.

Your log file should be /var/log/mail under red hat 9, I believe.  Look
for
any mail* logfiles in /var/log.

Regards,
Matt
