Glen:
Under /etc/mail create a file called relay-domains and add the domain name
to relay-domains. I set permissions to 0644 but I am sure 0600 would work
also for this file. I am using sendmail 8.9.3 and this solved a problem I
had with relaying subdomains. If you scroll down your sendmail.cf file
(8.9.3) you should see the line:
# Hosts that will permit relaying ($=R)
FR-o /etc/mail/relay-domains
Stop and start sendmail and if that does not work try placing the domain
name in /etc/mail/access. Again I am assuming sendmail 8.9.3. Then of course
re-make your .db file and stop mail and then start mail. Hopefully this
should allow it to get past check_rcpt.
Best of Luck,
Eddie Strohmier
