- I have the cc:Mail STMP gateway 1.3 connecting our cc:Mail database with
- a Sun SPARCstation running sendmail that uses UUNET as its smartuucp mailer.
- The SMTP gateway works fine with one exception: it cannot handle bang paths
- (i.e., uunet!hostname!user) when sending and (more importantly) replying
- to messages. The gateway just throws the message away without any warning.
-
- Has anyone figured out a solution to this? Is there a reasonable change I
- can make to sendmail.cf to handle this?
-
- Thanks.
