I have a home network with RH 8.0 running Sendmail and Imap/POP. When I try to set up account in Outlook to connect to my mail server using either the IP or the FQDN I get an error stating I cant connect to the outgoing server (port 25). I can send mail just fine from the RH box. I can retrieve incoming mail on the Outlook box but just cannot send anything out from there. I am not running a firewall on either of those boxes but am going through a DSL router, which I have configured, to NAT to/from the mail server.
Sendmail is configured to only listen on 127.0.0.1 by default. This is a FAQ, but the mailing list archives are broken.
You have to edit sendmail.mc to comment out the DAEMON_OPTIONS line. then rebuild sendmail.cf and restart sendmail.
