sendmail question

Hello all,

On my solaris 9 I have this process running

smmsp 29138 1 0 Apr 17 ? 0:00 /usr/lib/sendmail -Ac -q15m
root 29137 1 0 Apr 17 ? 0:00 /usr/lib/sendmail -q15m

if i use the command /usr/bin/mconnect
connecting to host localhost (127.0.0.1), port 25
connect: Connection refused

For is correct beacause I DON'T want smp server on this server, all mail suposed relay to my domino server.

all destination for outside work well, My problem if i send a mail to my localhost I see in syslog this messages.

Apr 18 14:39:23 fourmis1 sendmail[13946]: [ID 801593 mail.info] l3IIcbd6013946: to=bacert, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=32661, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]

I a many scripts try to send to local hosts and syslog come big.

I dont want remove log sendmail to the syslog. And I dont want activate port 25 for security. I work in a banq and I no choice to log all in syslog and I cannot activate local mail server.

It this possible to configure sendmail client if it see a local mail to put the mail in maildirectory or activate de mailserver without activate port 25 for process locahost mail only....

THANK FOUR YOUR HELP....

mailstats(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      mailstats(8)

NAME
mailstats - Displays statistics about mail traffic SYNOPSIS
mailstats [-o] [-C cffile [-f stfile] FLAGS
Do not display the name of the mailer in the output. Use cffile as the name of the sendmail "cf" file instead of /var/adm/sendmail/send- mail.cf. Use stfile as the input statistics file instead of /var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st. DESCRIPTION
The mailstats command reads the information in the /var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st file (or in the file specified with the -f flag), formats it, and writes it to standard output. Note also that you can change the location of the sendmail.st file by editing its pathname in the sendmail.cf file. EXAMPLES
The format of the information is shown in the following example, in which the first field (M) contains a number that indicates the position of that mailer in the sendmail.cf file, starting at 0 (zero). For example, the first mailer in the sendmail.cf file corresponds to the number 0 in the mailstats display, the second mailer corresponds to the number 1, and so on. Statistics from Thu Feb 17 11:20:01 2000 M msgsfr bytes_from msgsto bytes_to msgsrej msgsdis Mailer 1 50 77K 1 3K 0 0 local 6 43 59K 58 99K 0 0 smtp ============================================================ T 93 136K 59 102K 0 0 The fields in the report have the following meanings: Indicates the position of the mailer in the sendmail.cf file. Indicates the number of messages received by the local machine from the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of bytes in the messages received by the local machine from the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of messages sent from the local machine using the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of bytes in the messages sent from the local machine using the indicated mailer. Indicates the number of rejected messages. Indicates the number of discarded messages. Indicates the name of the mailer. If sendmail transmits mail directly to a file, such as the dead.letter file or an alias target, the message and byte counts are credited to the prog mailer, as defined in the sendmail.cf file. However, mailstats will still default to var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st. FILES
Specifies the command path Contains system statistics Contains configuration information for sendmail RELATED INFORMATION
