I am trying to send mail outside / in inernet email ids.
I think we are using sendmail... because I found this
$ ps -ef | grep mail
ixsdk 2998 1693 0 Jan20 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/sendmail -FCronDaemon -odi -oem ixsdk
Not sure why mails are not going outside. I m becoming mad.
Another mail problem
=========================
Recently one more server stopped sending mails (it was sending mails earlier), no sure why :-(
But I see this in the ps -ef command
$ ps -ef | grep mail
root 807 1 0 2005 ? 00:00:19 sendmail: accepting connections
smmsp 816 1 0 2005 ? 00:00:01 sendmail: Queue runner@01:00:00
Need help ....
Thanks a lot to all

local.users
local.users(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual local.users(4)
NAME
local.users - Specifies mail recipients on the local host.
DESCRIPTION
The local.users file contains a list of user names whose mail is to be delivered to the local host and whose return address is user-
name@hostname. Entries in the local.hosts file are in addition to other local users (such as root and postmaster). See sendmail.cf(4) for
a description of other local users.
You can add entries to this file if the host is configured as a simple client and either of the following is true: The user wants their
mail delivered on this machine rather than being forwarded to the mail server. You are adding aliases to the /var/adm/sendmail/aliases
file. When the host is configured as a simple client, the alias must be added to this file and the aliases file.
A simple client is defined as a host that had the mail system configured using the MailConfig application from the System Management utili-
ties or configured using the mailsetup utility's Quick Setup menu.
The format of the file is as follows: User names are separated by blanks or new lines. Multiple user name can be specified on a line.
Blank lines are ignored. A comment mark (#) ends the line.
After modifying the local.users file, you must restart the sendmail daemon to apply the changes. Use the following command: #
/sbin/init.d/sendmail restart
EXAMPLES
root postmaster rw # A comment followed by an ignored blank line.
# Another comment. mariah # Another comment.
carey # Leading blanks are acceptable.
FILES
Specifies the path name for the file.
