If you remove all those sophisticated anti-spam contortions, and reduce it to a minimal sendmail.mc, does it start working? If not, can you post that minimal sendmail.mc file? If that does fix the problem, start adding those hieroglyphics back in in functional units until it breaks.

The OP has created/imported some anti-spam measures that go well beyond your "typical" config. I normally treat sendmail.cf as I would the output of any compiler: Not human-readable. :) -- Ben "There are people who can read raw core dumps, too" Scott ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss

Umm, I assume that you mean something short of "switch to an MTA that can be fairly easily configured by mere mortals, like Postfix"? :-) I'm only half-joking, actually; with Postfix, fixing this is as simple as tacking the following line onto your /etc/postfix/main.cf file: myorigin = $mydomain And then issuing this command, as root: postfix reload That sure beats fscking around inside sendmail.rc, doesn't it? ;-) -- Bill Mullen RLU #270075 ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
