Sendmail woes w 5.3R
I recently upgraded to 5.3R and can't seem to get sendmail configured correctly. when I telnet to localhost 25 I get an immediate ESMTP response, but when I telnet to mailhost 25 where mailhost is the real name it takes some amount of time before the ESMTP response is displayed. If I comment out the following line from the mc file then the telnet to localhost 25 is slow also: DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Name=IPv6, Family=inet6') I tried define(`confTO_IDENT',`0s')dnl with no luck. I thought it might be related to IDENT. I have done nslookup mailhost gives me the ip, and nslookup ip gives me mailhost. Any pointer or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. -- Regards, Jeff ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Sendmail woes (domain resolving)
Hello everyone! I'm not 100% sure if this belongs here, as it is primarily a sendmail configuration problem. Sendmail blocks incoming mail delivered to it by fetchmail, if it's unable to resolve the domain the mail is sent from. For example: sendmail[2424]: h4RKlrp0002424: ruleset=check_mail, arg1=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [127.0.0.1], reject=451 4.1.8 Domain of sender address [EMAIL PROTECTED] does not resolve I tried to add the options FEATURE(accept_unresolvable_domains)dnl FEATURE(accept_unqualified_senders)dnl to the freebsd.submit.mc and the freebsd.mc file, but it didn't work. I'm pretty sure that I'm doing something wrong, but I'm not sure what it is. The reason that I want sendmail to deliver such mails is that fetchmail will not fetch any additional messages from an account once a message has been rejected by sendmail. How can I get to do sendmail what I want it to do? I'm pretty sure that I'm missing something obvious.

The differences are shown, per file, when you run mergemaster. You can choose "i" (install) to install the new file, which will wipe out any changes you may have made in your "old" version. Of your can choose to "leave until later", and then you will have to diff and merge the changes by hand. (Use the diff command to show the differences, and then edit your "old" files with the changes.) > BTW, the difference between old and new freebsd.mc appears (more-or-less) > cosmetic - BUT I didn't have a freebsd_submit.mc and one or two other files > which look important. If you don't have some of the files which look important, then you should have chosen "i" (install) when mergemaster gave you the choice. For these, just copy them from /var/tmp/temproot into their appropriate place. -- Matt Emmerton ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Quoting Giorgos Keramidas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I'd probably boot single user mode and run 'mergemaster' after mounting > all the filesystems. Giorgios, Am I expecting too much of mergemaster? I took your advice and ran it without any options. It showed me the comparision between old and new files as it ran on the console, and stored the new files in /var/tmp/temproot for me to compare and adjust my old files - without any guide about what the differences might be. The "old" files remain untouched until I manually change them. Is there at least a log somewhere which highlights any differences so I have the same sort of guide that appeared on the console when I ran mergemaster? BTW, the difference between old and new freebsd.mc appears (more-or-less) cosmetic - BUT I didn't have a freebsd_submit.mc and one or two other files which look important. -- Brian --- This message sent through Adam Internet Webmail http://www.adam.com.au ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

sendmail woes
In discussion on -stable, people have been trying to help me with a sendmail issue. The effect is for sendmail to refuse to start, no matter what, and I cannot use the Internet from that box. (I am using webmail and Windoze - - to send this message) One problem is that the version of sendmail and its .cf file are out of sync and I don't know how to correct this. There might be other problems I need to address. Here is the output of two investigatory commands suggested by Claus. They took AGES to complete (I went off to play patience while they ran!). Looks like the second output waited for me to provide an answer about ruleset, then gave up and gave me back my prompt (see last two lines). Hope someone can help with this "mess". Thanks.
