next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hello all. I thought with my simple setup the SMART_HOST variable in my
.mc
file will give me a working sendmail.cf. But NOT. I cannot send mail
properly to the outside world !! The fetchmail program is getting
email correctly from the POP3 server with the current sendmail .mc
file.
The sendmail .mc file is appended at the end of the message.
Thanks you for any advice, Please copy any reply to the email address
pyu@glink.net.hk because I am not currently subscribed to this mailing
list. Thanks !!
Patrick
Setting
=======
A FreeBSD box (hostname alien.local.org.hk) connected to a Windows NT
proxy
(hostname proxy.local.org.hk), which is our dial-up access for the
Internet.
The Windows NT machine does not provide DNS service.
Email sent by email client such as mutt on alien for an outside address
is
not sent, producing the 'mailq' output:
Mail Queue (1 request)
--Q-ID-- --Size-- -----Q-Time-----
------------Sender/Recipient------------
QAA02065 3 Mon Feb 14 16:37 localuser
(host map: lookup (outside.org): deferred)

-----------------------------
BUT if the user localuser send mail to localuser@local.org.hk the mail
does
go through the proxy !? Why ?
Feb 14 17:06:36 alien sendmail[2201]: RAA02201: from=localuser,

[192.168.1.97], stat=Sent (RAA17873 Message accepted for delivery)
-----------------------------
And if the user send to an unqualified address, eg. 'localuser', the
mail
is sent correctly without going through the proxy.
