Sendmail configuration error

[Timothy Czarnik]

We are getting some error messages from our Linux mail server (Red Hat 6.1) after a recent (this last weekend) rebuild. They are as follows:

553 mail.xxxxxxx.com. config error: mail loops back to me (MX
>problem?)
>554 ... Local configuration error

(Note that the x's replace actual server names and email address that are correct)

I have very little Linux experience, and I don't know sendmail very well. This server is delivering some of the mail correctly, but we are seeing these errors on a regular basis. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

If you haven't already, try posting this on the board dedicated to LINUX. Good luck.

James was correct! I apologize for posting in the wrong area. I have reposted in the Linux - System Administration area.

Any responses will gladly be accepted there!

Hi,

Try adding in the hosts file like:
ipaddress hostname hostname.co.mz

where ipaddress is the server ip followed by hostname.

Hope it's help
