did you tell sendmail to re-read its configuration file (/etc/sendmail.cf) ??? try "kill -HUP `head -1 /var/run/sendmail.pid`" look in /var/log/maillog for lines similar to: Jan 5 14:37:57 kryten sendmail[3227]: restarting /usr/sbin/sendmail on signal Jan 5 14:37:58 kryten sendmail[7164]: starting daemon (8.8.7): SMTP+queueing@00:30:00 if the lines to not appear, kill sendmail and restart it. (sendmail must be started with its full pathname, /usr/sbin/sendmail, in order to respond to a HUP signal. jmb Cliff Addy wrote: > > >> FR-o /etc/sendmail.cR > >> > >> Scheck_rcpt > >> # anything terminating locally is ok > >> R< $+ @ $=w > $@ OK > >> R< $+ @ $=R > $@ OK > >> > >> # anything originating locally is ok > >> R$* $: $(dequote "" $&{client_name} $) > >> R$=w $@ OK > >> R$=R $@ OK > >> R$@ $@ OK > >> > >> # anything else is bogus > >> R$* $#error $: "550 Relaying Denied" > > > >You can also just append the rules themselves to your existing .cf > > I tried this, but it seems to have no effect at all.
