I have had almost the same problem. I solved it by checking the mailspools
so that their atime was not in the future. The ones with the problem
had a future timestamp...

RE: sendmail or bind problems

Thanks for all the suggestions. I do have brion-enterprises.com and 
their ISP listed in /etc/mail/relay-domains and have brion-
enterprises.com in /etc/mail/local-host-names.

I believe the problem is with the target SMTP server, and I'd rather 
look like a fool here than with them. Attached is a transcript if 
anyone has time to look at it.

Thanks for all the suggestions before.

Rod

  Subject: sendmail or bind problems
 
 
  I am running sendmail 8.9.3-23. I host several small web sites. One 
of
  my clients is sending mail and the receiving server denies it 
because
  it says "Relaying Denied," I assume because my client is coming 
from my
  mail server (tully.dailydatainc.com) but has their return address
  (brion-enterprises.com) in the "From" field.
 
  I am using one IP address for everyone.
 
  Any ideas?
 
  I can send the headers if necessary.
 
  Thanks,
 
  Rod
