Dirk, Sorry for the multiple mails all of a sudden. I'm a little confused. All i need is for this machine to act as a secondary mx, which it is doing for most of the mail coming in the domain. I've currently got a line in the /etc/mail/alias stating the domain i want it to accept. However some of the mail is getting denied (i think because the anti relay rules are a little too strict). One remote machine can send mail to me, the other can't although both have the exact delivery address. This document http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section4.html#4.14 Says that if i configure the dns (which i have) for the machine to act as a secondary, that's all i have to do, except to modify the files which it claims are located here: http://www.sendmail.org/%7Eca/email/chk-89f.html#RELAYING however this site is less than revealing for me. If you've got any more ideas, i'd really appreciate the help.

Did you tell sendmail to use it? In recent releases sendmail will use: /etc/mail/relay-domains $ grep relay-domains /etc/mail/sendmail.cf FR-o /etc/mail/relay-domains This class is for domains and IP's that are allowed to use your server for _outgoing_ relay. For _incoming_ relay add a route in your mailertable. kind regards Dirk - Dirk Meyer, Im Grund 4, 34317 Habichtswald, Germany To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
