SUMMARY: cannot relay email messages
2007-12-25 5:37:00
I got many responses, thanks for all the replies. It turned out that the host name that was chosen for the server was conflicting with the other server. If I ran the following command:
#host server.mycompany.com
The ip address I was getting that this was hosting was different than the ip address set up in /etc/hosts file. So the solution was, instead of using hostname to relay the messages to smarthost, I used the ip address of the smarthost. For eg, instead of defining the smarthost as the following in the sendmail.mc file:
define(`SMART_HOST', `server.mycompany.com')
I used the following:
define(`SMART_HOST', `<ip address>')
Thankyou again for all the help.
Regards,
Mike.
