    I recently had a working sendmail.  I created an
.mc file with the bsd4.4 boilerplate and very helpful
instructions from a sendmail how-to.  After installing
a new system onto a new drive, this same .cf generated
from .mc file does not work.  I get RELAY denied from
my ISP's SMTP.  It will allow me to send out mail that
ends in its domain(earthlink.net in this case).  I
will retype the exact .mc file that I created below(I
would attach it, but lynx does not support
attachments?).

OSTYPE(`bsd4.4')dnl
define(`SMART_HOST', ~esmtp:mail.earthlink.net')dnl
FEATURE(`masquerade_envelope')dnl
FEATURE(`genericstable', `hash
/etc/mail/genericstable.db')dnl
GENERICS_DOMAIN_FILE(`/etc/mail/genericsdomain')dnl
FEATURE(`nouucp')dnl
MASQUERADE_AS(`earthlink.net')dnl
MAILER(`local')dnl
MAILER(`smtp')dnl

    Genericstable file contains nothing now because my
login is identical to my email.  Genericsdomain
contains localhost.domain, the end of my hostname.
    The error is SMTP; 550 <my rcpt email address>...
Relaying denied.  I am logging onto the net using
earthlink.  Anyone using a dynamic link with earthlink
have a working sendmail?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, Ian
