Hey John, Put the IP address of the Mac in /etc/mail/ip_allow. You may have to HUP sendmail to get it to see this change. This says to allow relaying from Mac. NOTE: If that file doesn't exist, then your setup is different from my Redhat 6.x. I'm assuming you're using the stock sendmail that comes with Redhat.

And IIRC, after changing the mail-server settings in Netscape-Preferences I got the the same following error-messages from Netscape-Messenger when trying to send mail with it: An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... Relaying denied Please check the message recipients and try again. IIRC I fixed this simply by changing Netscape's "Outgoing mail (SMTP) server" settings to the the *correct* values ... (or was it the "Incoming Mail Servers" setting I changed ...? I'm 95% sure it was the "outgoing" one ...) I hope it helps ...

SMTP mail realy problem. Please help.
Hi list. I need some help. I have a network of Linux boxen and one Macintosh. All the mail comes into a single Linux system and mail is read and sent out from that system on all the other systems using an x-window mail reader and setting DISPLAY to the machine I want to read from. So in all these cases the sending is done from the machine running sendmail. Now we come to the Macintosh. On the Macintosh I am trying to send mail by configuring the remote SMTP machine to the IP address of the machine running sendmail. I do this in the Netscape (or Eudora) preferences panel. However all attempts to send mail give this error: An error occurred while sending mail. The mail server responded: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... Relaying denied Please check the message recipients and try again. Now when sending mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from the machine running sendmail this address will work just fine. What am I missing? There must be some config file that tells sendmail to relay all mail from other IPs on this LAN just as it does for mail from that same machine. What is it?
