I'm editing the rules through webmin and the file time/date does appear to be getting updated. Also, I think it's working because I can remove the "homail.com REJECT" and I receive mail again from hotmail.com.
For good measure I did do the command as you stated below, but I get the same thing. When I have the following rules and try to send a message from my hotmail account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) I get the following error in the mail log. Rules snipet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OK hotmail.com REJECT mail log: Aug 30 07:38:29 sammy sendmail[8122]: g7UBcOY08122: ruleset=check_relay, arg1=f8.pav1.hotmail.com, arg2=64.4.31.8, relay=f8.pav1.hotmail.com [64.4.31.8], reject=550 5.7.1 Access denied Aug 30 07:38:30 sammy sendmail[8122]: NOQUEUE: f8.pav1.hotmail.com [64.4.31.8] did not issue MAIL/EXPN/VRFY/ETRN during connection to MTA I get the exact same error if I use RELAY instead of OK. Thanks, James ps - in response to Martin Mewes, if people assume no answer means a simple no, people are going to miss out on valuable information. this is a busy list, and unfortunately sometimes it's necessary to post a couple times. In this specific post someone else replied that it does work, where it doesn't for me. that too is going to make anyone dig deeper... On Fri, 2002-08-30 at 07:14, Anthony E.
