sendmail problem on Solaris 10

Hi All,

I am facing problem while sending mail using "mail" & "sendmail" commands from my Solaris 10 system. When I send the mail, it moves it to dead.letter & generates following error messages in /var/log/syslog file;

ppip1n:/var/log]

Note : Everything was working fine before 2 days, but suddenly it started giving me the above errors.

While configuring the sendmail initially I had followed following procedure & everything were working fine after configuring;

1. In /usr/lib/mail/cf/submit.mc
FEATURE(`msp', `[127.0.0.1]')dnl

2. I changed this to
FEATURE(`msp', `[smtp.abc.com]')dnl

3. Then I did "make submit.cf" and copied the submit.cf file to /etc/mail.

4. Restarted sendmail with "svcadm refresh smtp"

Note : smtp.abc.com entry added in /etc/host file also.

Everything was working fine, but suddenly it started giving me above mentioned errors. Nothing is changed as long as configurations of files are concerned, please help me out to resolve this issue.

Note : I am able to telnet to smtp.abc.com server perfectly.

Thanks & Regards,
jumadhiya.

CALIBRE-SMTP(1) 						      calibre							   CALIBRE-SMTP(1)

NAME

       calibre-smtp - part of calibre

SYNOPSIS

       calibre-smtp  [options] [from to text]

DESCRIPTION

       Send  mail using the SMTP protocol. calibre-smtp has two modes of operation. In the compose mode you specify from to and text and these are
       used to build and send an email message. In the filter mode, calibre-smtp reads a complete email message from STDIN and sends it.

       text is the body of the email message.  If text is not specified, a complete email message is read from STDIN.  from is the  email  address
       of the sender and to is the email address of the recipient. When a complete email is read from STDIN, from and to are only used in the SMTP
       negotiation, the message headers are not modified.

       Whenever you pass arguments to calibre-smtp that have spaces in them, enclose the arguments in quotation marks.

       --version
	      show program's version number and exit
