Re: Mailing from Unix
To start with:
Check the mail account of the sender for a non-delivery.
Check how sendmail is going to deliver to hotmail.com using:
/usr/lib/sendmail -bv mymailid@hotmail.com
see what the relay host is, whether it is alive, accepting connections on port 25.
Check the /var/adm/syslog/mail.log for any errors.
What's changed recently?
Rgds, Robin.

Re: Mailing from Unix
Check with the DNS/Firewall team if they are blocking your systems to talk to internet.
Thanks.

Re: Mailing from Unix
So, does "telnet pacnetmail 25" work OK?

Re: Mailing from Unix
Your mail servers could be having some problem sendling emails to the inernet. Look at the mail server and see if the mails are being sent to the internet.
Hope this helps.

Re: Mailing from Unix
We are not using FIREWALL, but if the External mailing is blocked by DNS, how should we check that?
Robin,
I tried "telnet pacnetmail", but didn't work.
but ping pacnetmail is giving "reply".
And our mailing system is working file.
The interesting thing is few days back, I tried sending mail from solaris server to external mail server and initially it worked fine, but after some times, no response.
Where should I look at the problem?
Friends:
So far with all the replies, I learnt many things, and your answers are really appreciatable, and I do thank all of you.
Regards
Syed
