mail problem

[mohan singh]

Hi Guru,s

Thanks a log for helping me , I did the changes in required file, then I check the nslookup command .

# nslookup newfme3.infineon.com
Using /etc/hosts on: newfme3

looking up FILES
Name: newfme3.infineon.com
Address: 172.17.17.204
Aliases: newfme3

After this I tried the following command
# sendmail -v me@infineon.com
infineon.com: Name server timeout
me@infineon.com... Transient parse error -- message queued for future delivery

But mail still not working, I am sure you will help me.

some body gave me url ,which refer patches. mean I have to apply those patches.

Best Regards

Mohan

Mohan,

Do you have any mail server in your setup ? Like windows exchange server ? If yes then you can configure your HP UX box in relay mode. You have to make small change in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf. You have to put your mail server name or IP address in that file.

Hi Sunil,

I did check the /etc/mail/sendmail.cf . I found the follwing entry in this file for relay.
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
#DS
DSappmail.mkz.infineon.com

Hi,

Try this trick. Take your relay server (appmail.mkz.infineon.com) IP address. i.e. please assume that is 3.44.55.66. Then add in your /etc/hosts fiel the following line:
3.44.55.66 infineon.com

So try again with the sendmail verbose option:
#echo "Hi"|sendmail -v rauthanms.external@infineon.com

Rgds.

Hello,

I have just added my SMTP server in sendmail.cf , Mail started going to privete mail like yahoo.com etc .. but I am not able to send the mail to my domain . Mean mails are not going to users@infineon.com
what could be the problem.
output of sendmail -v is below.

# sendmail -v rauthanms.external@infineon.com
rauthanms.external@infineon.com... User unknown


Thanks in advance

Mohan

Hi Mohan,

Are you sure rauthanms.external is a valid mail id?. Try sending it from some yahoo.com to see if it really works.
