I generated the files with this make command, and all just worked out of the box. I can send email, without needing to tell sendmail about my hostname. So far so good. However, next what I need, is using another port for sending emails out. I have googled and read the sendmail FAQs, but I am completely at a loss here. There is a FAQ, that explains: If you want all outgoing SMTP connections to use port 2525, you can use this in your .mc file: define(`RELAY_MAILER_ARGS', `TCP $h 2525') define(`ESMTP_MAILER_ARGS', `TCP $h 2525') I have put this in my hostname.mc file, but to no avail. I'm probably not familiar enough with sendmail way of doing things. But then this is such a simple thing, that it should be easy. I suppose that with "netstat -a", there should be a line with port 2525, if above works. But that is not there. Do you have any suggestions how to solve this? Thanks, Rob. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
