Sorry I don't get the right informations in these theards.
I think sendmail just coulnd't connect to the dns for mx/nslookup. I tried it manually and it works and get mx information of any host I want to know.
Is there any additional special dns config for sendmail name resolving ?
I think a is a bit strange then all other parts could resolv it without any problems.
I just want a simple smtp. I dont need any more.
I read about more and more tools. I don't need any named.conf don't you? Or did I misunderstand something!
It should really be an easy going smtp - no more.
Thank you for your help!!!
