Hello, I've been unable to get sendmail to send mail properly and am hoping someone can give some advice. My internet connection is fine; I can use ssh, http, etc. without any trouble. My machine connects to a a router which is connected to a cable modem: aleph# netstat -r Routing tables Internet: Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Netif Expire default 192.168.0.1 UGSc 7 0 rl0 localhost localhost UH 1 49 lo0 192.168.0 link#1 UC 1 0 rl0 192.168.0.1 00:80:c8:24:0b:cb UHLW 8 0 rl0 823 aleph# ifconfig rl0 rl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 inet6 fe80::2e0:4cff:fe98:36fa%rl0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x1 inet 192.168.0.197 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 192.168.0.255 ether 00:e0:4c:98:36:fa media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>) status: active I can't send any mail though. The first entries in my mail queue: i22K75of000208 3 Tue Mar 2 15:07 <justin@aleph.none.org> (Deferred: Operation timed out with math.umd.edu.) <brody@math.umd.edu> i22K6mof000198 5 Tue Mar 2 15:06 <justin@aleph.none.org> (Deferred: Operation timed out with math.umd.edu.) <brody@math.umd.edu> And lots more like it. I can telnet to math.umd.edu port 25 just fine. I've also tried sending to other addresses and using '-f' to set my return address. That unfortunately exhausts my knowledge of sendmail! I'd greatly appreciate any help! I browsed some on the internet and saw that someone once had a similar problem with his hostname being set incorrectly. I wasn't sure how to look at that though... Thanks, Justin Brody
