So to summarize,
* you have created accounts on RH that have "@" userid's
in the userid.
* Email isn't reaching those accounts, because sendmail is attempting
to deliver to
username
on the loal machine, instead of
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
which is literally the name of that account.
Wow! I can't help but feel you're on the wrong track. Perhaps you've
seen a email client that used the [EMAIL PROTECTED] syntax but
actually logged onto the pop server using "username", and used
"@yourdomain.com" part to figure out the hostname instead of making the
user fill out a separate field with the hostname.
To be honest, I don't know why you would want to use this, but perhaps you
should post to the comp.mail.sendmail usenet group. Maybe someone there
would have some ideas.
