- I am having trouble setting up sendmail on our new Indigo R4000.
- After some work I am able to receive mail from any host, but cannot
- send mail at all. My machine appears to add a ".ether" to the full
- mailpath name. Here is the output of /usr/etc/configmail list:
-
- Parameters:
-
- forwarder = "relay"
- rootdomain = "sanders.lockheed.com"
- directdomains = "sanders.lockheed.com"
- localdomain = "sanders.lockheed.com"
- pathalias = "/dev/null"
- relayname = "relay"
- deadhosts = "somewhere"
-
- Functions:
-
- domainrelay = "relay"
- mycanonname = "denali.sanders.lockheed.com"
-
- Relay is aliased in /etc/hosts to the forwarder machine. Also, when
- receiving mail my machine always greets the sending machine with
- something like "HELO machinename.D, why do you call yourself
- machinename.domainname". Clearly something is wrong here but I
- haven't a clue. Would appreciate any pointers that anyone can give.
- Thanks.
