I'm trying to configure sendmail with SMTP authentication on a SunOS 5.11 operating system. I have been read various documentation / tutorials and unfortunately is not working. I need help from someone who has configured smtp on this operating system.
When I try to send a mail, I have the following error:
Code:
The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<username&test.com>
----- Transcript of session follows -----
550 5.1.2 <username&test.com>... Host unknown (Name server: mailhost.localhost.localhost.com: host not found)

I've looked into the sendmail configuration files to change host mailhost.localhost.localhost.com with my smtp server, but it does not exist.
In /etc/mail/sendmail.cf to the line
Code:
# "Smart" relay host (may be null)
DS
... where is DS we put the smtp server, I restarted the services and unfortunately the hostname does not change.
Thanks in advance.
