I noticed that you mentioned the entry for hardwickclothes.com in sendmail.cw, but did not say you hade one for gimbelconstruction.com. Was this just an oversight, or is gimbelconstruction.com not listed in sendmail.cw? It must be in sendmail.cw for you machine to accept mail bound for this domain. -- Jim Weeks On Wed, 27 Sep 2000, Lisa Casey wrote: > Hi, > > This is a Sendmail problem but I hope someone here can help me.
