This server(netuno) don't exists more,
but the system almost send mail by netuno server.

Error in /var/adm/syslog/mail.log

should be configured in your sendmail.cf file, search for netuno in there, may look like this:

# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DS netuno

[A. Clay Stephenson]

I think you are referring to the "Smart Relay". Look in your /etc/mail/sendmail.cf file for this macro:
DS netuno

and change it to your replacement hostname (or simply comment out the DS macro if no Smart Relay is needed).

After making the change,
cd /sbin/init.d
./sendmail stop
./sendmail start

Hi,

Correct parameter DS in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf, changing netuno to your new mail server name.
If you don´t user dns, this new mail server name has to be added in /etc/mail.
start and stop sendmail and try again.
