- Everything was correct in your PMDF.CNF. The output from PMDF MMTEST which you
- show does not correlate with the PMDF.CNF file you sent us. There was nothing
- in it which would produce user@fermi.bitnet (mtcp_intnet channel) from
- user@fermi. I suspect that you have one or more of the following lying around:
- a compiled configuration, a domain database, or a general database which is
- interfering with the rewriting process. Note that there is a BITNET system
- named FERMI which is found in the DOMAIN.DAT file for most BITNET PMDF sites.
- This would be mapped to FERMI.BITNET and then your .BITNET rule in your
- PMDF.CNF file sends this to your mtcp_intnet channel...
-
- Try using the command
-
- $ pmdf mmtest/noimage/databases=(nodomain,nogeneral)/config_file=pmdf.tst -
- _$ user@fermi
-
- and then see what happens.
-
- I've modified your PMDF.CNF slightly and included it below. We recommend that
- you use
-
- mtcp_intnet smtp daemon router nox_env_to queue csg$pmdf
-
- for TCP/IP gateway channels. Because of a bug in early PMDF V4.1 tapes, I've
- remove the "charset7 us-ascii" from your channels. This is the default
- setting, anyhow. Finally, I've removed the long list of Internet rules and
- added a match all rule to send all non-local traffic to your gateway.
