What exactly is the difference between /etc/sendmail.cR and /etc/mail/Relay-Hosts? Do i create the latter and make a copy saved as /etc/sendmail.cR? I don't seem to see any reference to /etc/sendmail.cR in my sendmail.cf, except in the comments from the sendmail.cf additions file in /etc/mail. Why, if i put "host1.domain.com" in relay hosts, does mail get bounced unless i put host1.domain.com's ip in Local-IP? Do i have to put it in both? I'm guessing that CNAMEs do not matter as long as the main hostname is in the file? (ie the one the IP resolves to) Please educate me... -Mit --- Will Mitayai Keeso Rowe volunteer: employment: Project Co-ordinator Systems Administrator/Programmer The Dreaming Network Neray MarCom, Inc. http://www.dreaming.org http://www.nmarcom.com will@dreaming.org thelab@nmarcom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
