Full Discussion: sendmail and unqualified addresses
Operating Systems Solaris sendmail and unqualified addresses Post 302123061 by csgonan on Friday 22nd of June 2007 06:30:01 PM
Old 06-22-2007
I have all those things. I researched a bit more and found this.

When I first set up this server, I could not send mail out. I learned I had to set the mailhost in the submit.cf file, and that worked. Then what I found was that local email (ie) user@host.domain.com or even to root, was not longer being delivered.

I need to have all root mail delivered locally and mail addresses to user@host.domain.com delivered locally, but all other mail sent to the relay server. I also need all addresses that have no domain appended (ie) mailuser, sent to the relay as mailuser@domain.com (not mailuser@host.domain.com). Right now they are trying to be delivered locally, which I understand is the submit.cf behavior.

I do not want this server listening on port 25.

Any ideas?

Thanks
