Guys, Am not sure if this is the appropriate forum….but am…. Having major problems with Sendmail and FreeBSD Version 4.6 (standard installation). Am I missing something…as this was
working under Version 4.4? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated… Am using the “sendmail.cf”
to send all SMTP email to a configured SMTP relay. I can telnet port25 and perform a manual
connect. DNS is configured correctly (nslookup
resolves). However am using a split
DNS (acme.org and acme.com). With acme.com
being external Am wishing to send all mail to my
internal SMTP email server (using a relay method). This was working under FreeBSD 4.4! ****************************************************************************** </etc/mail/sendmail.cf> # "Smart" relay host (may be null) DSmymailserver.acme.org Here is the output from a basic email test: coremonitor02$ mail -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: test test . EOT riotinto.com: Name server timeout test.user @acme.com...
Transient parse error -- message queued for future delivery test.user @acme.com...
queued I can fix the Name server timeout by using a service.switch file.
It appears that FreeBSD 4.6 sendmail always
looks for a suitable MX record even though a SMTP relay has been hard=coded?? </etc/mail/service.switch> hosts files aliases files I then get the following: coremonitor02$ mail -v [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: test test . EOT test.user @acme.com...
Transient parse error -- message queued for future delivery test.user @acme.com...
queued Any ideas????? Cheers, Greg
P.S. Am not a complete
UNIX buff, so please be kind. |
