People:
I am still having problems with mail relaying. I am running RH 7.1 on an Intel chip.
I made the following changes to /etc/mail/sendmail.mc:
DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')
changed to:
dnl DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')
dnl FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
dnl FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX')dnl
changed to:
FEATURE(`accept_unresolvable_domains')dnl
FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX')dnl
I then ran m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf and restarted sendmail via
service restart sendmail.
I then edited the /etc/mail/access file and added some lines (here is the entire file):
# Check the /usr/share/doc/sendmail-8.11.2/README.cf file for a description
# of the format of this file. (search for access_db in that file)
# The /usr/share/doc/sendmail-8.11.2/README.cf is part of the sendmail-doc
# package.
#
# by default we allow relaying from localhost...
localhost.localdomain RELAY
localhost RELAY
127.0.0.1 RELAY
mindspring.com RELAY
lucent.com REALY
I then restarted sendmail again. All appeared well.
I then cranked up a mail client (Eudora on windoze) and pointed my SMTP server to the
hostmane of the computer I was mucking with (vtcdev.gc.lucent.com).
When I attempt to send a mail message with the return address of
[EMAIL PROTECTED] through vtcdev.gc.lucent.com I get the following message:
<message>
There has been an error transferring your mail. I said:
MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
and then the SMTP serer {vtcdev.gc.lucent.com} said:
553 5.3.0 RELAY
</end message>
So.. I'm lost. I'm reading what little information I have regarding sendmail and I
think this should work.
Any suggestions?
