Subject: Hello
Does SMTP work?
EoF...
The only thing I changed in sendmail.cf is the following:
##################
# local info #
##################
Cwlocalhost
# file containing names of hosts for which we receive email
Fw/etc/mail/local-host-names
# my official domain name
# ... define this only if sendmail cannot automatically determine your domain
#Dj$w.Foo.COM
CP. mail.majuki.com
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DS majuki.com
------------------------
I can send mail locally using username@bigred.majuki.com, but
username@mail.majuki.com or username@majuki.com do not work. I have
DNS configured correctly with the mail exchanger records in place. I
remember having problems with this before, and it came down to that
section of the sendmail.cf file. TIA.
