That actually "fixed" it, but maybe for the wrong reason. I restarted my sendmail daemons for no good reason after changing config files and got this log: > Jan 4 18:46:16 localhost sm-mta[5812]: restarting /usr/sbin/sendmail due to signal ... > Jan 4 18:46:17 localhost sm-mta[5812]: gethostbyaddr(IPv6:::1) failed: 1 Then the mail processed normally (AFAIK) logging at the first send: > Jan 4 18:47:18 localhost sm-mta[6015]: h052lIt7006015: > from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=477, class=0, nrcpts=1, > msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, > daemon=Daemon0, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1] where I expected to see [0.0...0.1] in that last "[]". Something didn't like the change to /etc/hosts and I suspect it gave up on IPv6 and resorted to IPv4. I X-buffer-copied this and counted the zeros: 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain I didn't get the "gethostbyaddr" error after changing /etc/hosts back and restarting the daemons. -- - To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
