For some reason, when I run my firewall, my mail is not being relayed. My
firewall is just a set of ipchain rules. Here is an example of my maillog
file. The first entry is something that I sent
after dropping my firewall and the second is after the firewall is back up:
Nov 29 18:29:43 C287853-A sendmail[12067]: SAA12065: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:02, xdelay=00:00:02, mailer=esmtp,
relay=mx-rr.home.com. [24.0.0.194], stat=Sent (SAA24790 Message accepted for
delivery)
Nov 29 18:31:57 C287853-A sendmail[12244]: SAA12244: from=root, size=216,
class=0, pri=30216, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
relay=root@localhost
Nov 29 18:31:57 C287853-A sendmail[12246]: SAA12244: [EMAIL PROTECTED],
ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp,
relay=mx1.home.com. [24.0.0.31], stat=Deferred: Connection refused by
mx1.home.com.
Notice that the relay refuses a connection when my firewall is up!
Any idea why this would happen?
Thanks
