To Whom,
I've made every attempt to rectify the sendmail routing safely (avoiding
any major changes to sendmail). The problem started when I configured
the /etc/sendmail.cw to pull-down every local host, domain, and aliases
at the server. When I made an attempt to send mail to a local host,
instead of the mail forwarding to the local host - the server accepted
the mail for the local host.
I looked into many possible scenarios; first there was mailertable,
pathtable, and ... Each time nothing resulted in any differences. The
book refers to /usr/lib/local/mail as the default sendmail installment
directory, but it was properly installed in /usr/lib/sendmail-cf by Red
Hat 4.2 with a kernel 2.0.30. Someone mentioned looking into
/etc/mail/relay_allo, but their is no mention of /etc/mail/relay_allo in
any documentation that I could find.
The reasons for the initial changes create faster routing, posting, and
sending. Without the changes, sendmail meanders around until it stumbles
onto the answers correctly. In addition to the above, I also checked
into crontab, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with the
routing (I... could be wrong). What is the best approach to take in a
case like this?
