Hi,

I have hpux workstation and mail server(LOTUS notes winnt) on same network, when I am sending mail to any one(world i.e xyz@hotmail.com ...), its bouncing, I am able to send mail to other unix workstations and other unix users. I am able to ping lotus notes server from my unix workstation, I want to know how to configure my unix mail system, my mails should reach world.

Try to relay your mail to your Lotus Note mail server.

vi /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

Look for the Smart relay macro, which is DS

DS

Make sure the hostname is resolvable on your unix box.

restart sendmail and try send mail again.

Hi Karthik,

Configue a mail replay for your unix server. Look for DS on your /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file and modify the entry to pass your emails to a mail replay. If you network allows emails to be sent to the network you should be able to send internet emails from your unix server.

Take a look at this thread,

Also you can do a search on the forum solution and get more suggestions.

Hope this helps.
