Specifically, I am sending mail to @eadsa.com, where the usr user account exists on the local machine. When I send mail to @eadsa.com from the local machine, the email arrives with no problem. When I send the same email from another machine, it never arrives. I'm not sure if the problem is in the mx record, the sendmail configuration or somewhere else. My zone file contains: eadsa.com. IN NS ns1.granitecanyon.com. eadsa.com. IN NS ns2.granitecanyon.com. eadsa.com. IN RP jim.freeze.org. jim.eadsa.com. ; EXTREF jim.freeze.org. IN TXT #Jim Freeze, NIC handle: JF2009# ; EXTREF localhost.eadsa.com. IN A 127.0.0.1 eadsa.com. IN A 24.9.218.175 www.eadsa.com. IN CNAME eadsa.com. eadsa.com. IN MX 10 eadsa.com. *.eadsa.com. IN MX 100 eadsa.com. ; GLOBALOK I have added eadsa.com to my sendmail.cw file. At this point, I don't know what to do next. I am slowly working my way through the sendmail book, but that is taking some time. Can someone point me in the right direction to resolve this problem.
