Now looks like:
localhost.localdomain RELAY
localhost RELAY
127.0.0.1 RELAY
192.168.0.0/24 RELAY
(Also tried an exact number
here 192.168.0.7)
Then running:
hash /etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access
And finally restart sendmail
service sendmail restart
Attempting to send mail from machine 192.168.0.7 with mail client
aimed at the above machine with the edited sendmail.cf, for smtp server.
Gives me this error on the (Win 98) client:
Error reported by server 550 5.7.1
Relaying denied
It seems something should appear in /var/log/maillog on the server
too, but nothing does.
