I am using sendmail to handle my mail. I am currently connected to the internet full time via a cable modem using the @home service. I have registered 3 domain names, chickenbean.com, tecpro.com, and wolflawfirm.com, and they all point to my server at 24.4.115.200. DNS is being provided by ais-gwd.com, a local ISP. In my rc.conf file, I have the following lines: hostname="chickenbean.com" ifconfig_ed0_alias0="chickenbean.com" ifconfig_ed0_alias1="tecpro.com" ifconfig_ed0_alias2="wolflawfirm.com" ... bla bla bla (It should be noted that my hostname that has been designated to me by @home is ci1000971-d.sptnbrg1.sc.home.com.) In my sendmail.cw file, I have the following lines: chickenbean.com tecpro.com wolflawfirm.com When I send mail to domains outside my own, for example, questions@freebsd.org, I get the following error message displayed on my freebsd server console and log file: Aug 14 23:57:38 chickenbean sendmail[485]: XAA00485: ruleset=check_rcpt, arg1=, relay=ci1000971-f.sptnbrg1.sc.home.com [24.4.115.203], reject=550 ... Relaying denied Is freebsd.org rejecting this email message, or is my server, chickenbean.com rejecting the email message? I am sending this mail message from 24.4.115.203, my notebook computer running win98, via my mail account on my server, chickenbean.com, which is at ip: 24.4.115.200 Any mail that I send to freebsd.org, or lots of other domains for that matter, are rejected in a similar fashion. I have been having this problem since I moved this server to the @home network (my old ISP who hosted a similar mail server gave me such grief that I brought everything in house). I have posted several questions to the questions@freebsd.org mailing list, but have not found a good answer. Thanks in advance!
