And how/where am I prohibiting the relaying to user ravi ? [ It's a fresh
install of Debian 2.1 ]

I'm sorry if the question(s) are too basic , man sendmail would just give
me too much info and I still havent quite figured out where the problem is
.

One last thing ,where do i check for mail relay errors on my box itself ? 
 /var/log/messages didnt quite show any info on these... are mail related
things logged elsewhere/nowhere ?

thanks
- ravi.
