Sendmail Problem
i still have the same problem with the sendmail on a HP-UX server ,
the mail server is a Novell server ,
i configured the sendmail.cf with specifying the domain in the Dj and specifying the mail server in the DS ,
i also configured my /etc/hosts file ,
when i make a test to send a mail ,for ex sendmail -v toni@test.int , the mail is sent and is not in the mail queue but i did not receive any mail ,
so i don't know where is the mail ?
thank's for your replies

Re: Sendmail Problem
the problem I had a couple of weeks ago was that the administrator of the mailserver was testing af new spam filter. Better talk to your mail administrator, since your mail has left the hpux server.

John K.

Re: Sendmail Problem
By default mail servers will not permit relay until they are configured to permit it. The Novell system probably does not permit relay.
Check the log /var/log/mailllog or /var/log/mail/maillog for exactly what happened.
sendmail -v -d8 -d38 someone@some.net
Type some text

Re: Sendmail Problem
Send out another test email as you've done. Examine the /var/adm/syslog/mail.log file and get the ID from it. There will be two lines for each email looking something like:
Mar 6 00:00:04 host sendmail[27652]: k26504L27652: from=root, size=237, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200603060500.k26504L27652@host.ndc.company.com>, relay=root@localhost
Mar 6 00:00:04 host sendmail[27654]: k26504L27652: to=root, ctladdr=root (0
/3), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=120237, dsn=2.0.0, stat=
Sent
The mail ID is k26504L27652. That mail id will be used on the novel server as well. Have your novell admin examine the mail logs on the novel system to see what happened to the email.
