Shalom Moizg,

To help we're going to need a little more information.

sendmail -v -d8 -d38 someone@aol.com

type some text

.


This information will also be logged in /var/log/maillog

The normal problem with this falls into the following areas:

1) Firewall prevents you from sending a mail on port 25. See firewall admin and check your iptables configuration
2) Your name resolution, defined by GATEWAY and /etc/resolv.conf does not permit your mail transport to resolve names to numeric addresses.
3) You have the DS directive in sendmail.cf configured to relay mail to the outside world throuh a gateway that is not configured to permit mail relay.

All of this will be apparent based on the error code in the logs or from my diagnostic email above.

What is the message you get in:

mailx -v -s "test" user@otherdomain.com
mailq -v
tail /var/log/maillog


This could be a name resolution problem, check /etc/resolv.conf, or a Relay misconfiguration, check /etc/mail/access or /etc/mail/relay-domains.
