I am trying to setup the sendmail on my rx2620 running on HPUX11.23 which work with the MS Exchange server. The e-mail properly routes to the Exchange server when I enter the our internal DNS servers at the DNS Resolver however, when it gets removed (DNS server info) the e-mail does not go out to the Exchange but it just queued in the /var/spool/mqueue.
Is there anyway the sendmail to work without the DNS setup?
Thanks for your recommends.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Configuring the Sendmail without the DNS information
This should match the smart-relay host you have listed in the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file
# grep "^DS" /etc/mail/sendmail.cf

Re: Configuring the Sendmail without the DNS information
Thanks for your recommendation, but it does not work even though the DS is set correctly.
Do you have any other suggestion?

SolutionEdit the sendmail.cf file and look for the ruleset 96 described as "# pass to name server to make hostname canonical"
R$* < @ $* $~P > $* $: $1 < @ $[ $2 $3 $] > $4
Comment it, save the file and restart the sendmail.
If you run the sendmail in the debug mode ( i.e. -v -d8.99 ), you would see the the exact rule of the ruleset.
With this change, sendmail DNS lookup would be bypassed and the mail is directly passed to "smart host" defined with DS macro.
