But: when I'm occasionally connected using PPP then you *do* see a DNS lookup and a direct SMTP to the outside world when sending mail. If PPP is down everything goes into the uucp queue as planned. The FEATURE(nodns) therefore does not eliminate DNS lookups altogether which is probably what Thomas expects (and I agree I suppose) > > > How do I use sendmail for mail delivery with UUCP?
