Odd sendmail behavior change
Sendmail seems to have changed its behavior in the last week. I only use sendmail for system mail and it was working up until May 28: May 28 03:08:23 kt sendmail[96390]: k4S78MdC096390: to=root, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=32393, relay=[127.0.0.1] [12 7.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (k4S78MRA096392 Message accepted for delivery) May 28 03:09:39 kt sm-mta [96399]: k4S78MRA096392: to=[EMAIL PROTECTED], delay =00:01:16, xdelay=00:01:16, mailer=esmtp, pri=32709, relay=hus.parkingspa.com. [ 66.246.195.41], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Operation timed out with hus.parkingspa.com. Now all system mail seems to want to be forwarded thru some relay at hus.parkingspa.com. I have no clue where this came from nor can I find any configuration for it. My sendmail configuration has always been the default (6.1-STABLE). The only 'configuration' I've done is to alias root's mail to my local user in /etc/aliases. Have there been any changes to sendmail or required configurations that I've missed. src/UPDATING gave no clues and I've grepped files trying to find where hus.parkingspa.com could have came from to no avail. Any suggestions for fixing this would be appreciated. If any information is needed, just ask.

I've been using that name internally for many years and I do have it listed in /etc/hosts. I thought that /etc/hosts was checked before bind. It was never an issue before May 28 but the solution was relatively easy: change the network name for my LAN add the hostname to /etc/mail/local-host-names restart sendmail (kill -HUP `head -1 /var/run/sendmail.pid`) Thanks for the clue stick and the quick response! It really was driving me crazy for a bit but I should know after 8 unix years that when contradictions exist, check the premises. I never dreamed anyone would actually use such a stupid hostname for real ;-) Best regards, Randy -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
