Just joined the forum though I have been lurking here for many years now.
Wondering if anyone can help me out with a problem that I'm currently having.
I have a few servers that are relaying all email off of the box to an exchange server. There is a SmartHost configured in sendmail.cf
The problem is, is that it relaying ALL emails, even the emails bound for local users. I have another box which is working correctly and only relaying "external" email. I have checked though and compared the sendmail.cf, submit.cf (not in use), domaintable, access and local-host-names as well as the /etc/hosts and /etc/aliases file and they all appear to be identical in both cases.
I've thought that it could be some issue with the /etc/hosts as on the broken server it has several entries for itself pointing it's own IP address;
IP ADDRESS broken_server.domain.com
On the working Server these entries are not present so I decided to replicate the local IP address entries on the working server in the hope that this would break it in the same fashion. It didn't.
I've been toying with the idea of using the -

Hello,
I manage a large sendmail server that handles more than 20,000 pieces of mail per day. It's a bit unusual in that all this mail is only being sent to and from 4 local accounts. (It's an automated transaction processing system, whereby users submit a transaction via email attachment). ... (2 Replies)
