I am running a RH 8.0 box with up2date sendmail and when I got to www.dnsreport.com i get the following error. Anyone know what the cause is?
WARN: One or more of your mailservers does not accept mail in the domain literal format ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Mailservers are technically required RFC1123 5.2.17 to accept mail to domain literals for any of its IP addresses. Not accepting domain literals can make it more difficult to test your mailserver, and can prevent you from receiving E-mail from people reporting problems with your mailserver. However, it is unlikely that any problems will occur if the domain literals are not accepted.

The above message is a warning - the "Fail" message is the one you want to fix. It looks like virtusertable might contain: @mail.rhumphrey.com [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to redirect all mail to another email account. mail to postmaster should be deposited into a mailbox on the local server.
