The r-dns that resolves to my mc record is oned by my isp and sendmail works fine on my box. I haven't read the previous emails nor have i been following this thread so i may be repeating some stuff here. The reason you are getting relaying denied is because sendmail disables that feature on install. You need to either add the features: FEATURE(`relay_based_on_MX') FEATURE(`access_db') The above features you will be able to control relaying by adding a type of host allow/deny to each files.: /etc/mail/access /etc/mail/relay-domains or install smtpauth, which is fully supports by 8.11.1 and is quite nice. either one once you get them installed properly you will be able to relay mail off your server.
