UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi,
I have to change the mail server, but I could not find the file where it is written in.

I use the following command:

Code:

</> echo krneki | mail -v -s "New report" receiver@our.comp

Server name ("skala") can be seen in a terminal output ....

Code:

receiver@our.comp ... Connecting to skala.our.comp. via esmtp...
220 skala ESMTP Sendmail AIX4.3/8.9.3/8.9.3; Wed, 19 May 2010 16:40:53 +0200

Thx
Franci

I'd found out where the problem was. In a file /etc/sendmail.cf the following line was "empty":

Code:

</> grep ^DS /etc/sendmail.cf
DS

I had to enter mail server name there:

Code:

DSmailsrv1

But I still don't understand where mail command had found "skala". Namly, the difference before and now is:

Code:

... Connecting to skala.our.comp. via esmtp...
... Connecting to mailsrv1 via relay...

"esmtp" ver "relay" ?!?
