re: sendmail: 550 host unknown

Hi mrsaint,

From the conversation of your mails it seems that you wish to make your UNIX box a mailing server if I am not wrong.

Before some solutions I would like to know whether you are using some another mailing server (for eg. MS-Exchange, Novell Groupwise, CC:Mail etc.).

Also the configurations seen throughtout the mails I have read seems to be perfect. So what I feel is you are trying to send a mail to the outside world i.e. Internet ID's which routes through some mailing server.

Kindly let me know if you are doing so and also that if you want to make this UNIX box as a server or a client.

Regards,

vrk
