Operating Systems Solaris how to send mails to users on exchange server from sendmail/solaris(mailx) Post 89928 by mr_manny on Thursday 17th of November 2005 12:24:10 AM

creative /etc/hosts resolving and utilizing your company's SMTP server...

You could introduce your company's SMTP server and some creative /etc/hosts resolving on your SUNbox?

Our sendmail is configured w/the following options:
DMyourCOMPANY.com (masquerade company email address)
DSmail.COMPANY.com (this is the default route for all outgoing mail, which will be resolved in hosts file locally)

now in /etc/hosts, resolve mailCOMPANY.com by associating it w/your company's SMTP server (It will also include an alais for your exchange server domain).

192.x.x.x EXCHANGEdefaultDOMAIN.net mailCOMPANY.com

I believe it is this EXCHANGEdefaultDOMAIN.net entry that allows exchange to receive incoming mail. You will notice that it is recognized when performing a sendmail test (sendmail -v exchangeUSER@COMPANY.com).

no DNS, everything is resolved locally.
