X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2006 10:37:38 -0000 Hi, I have a weird problem with my mail server. It's running 6-Stable as Feb. 23rd. After a boot up, sendmail refuses to deliver emails with a reject=550 5.7.1 [...] Relaying denied When I then simply restart sendmail manually: /etc/rc.d/sendmail restart the problem is solved and email is correctly delivered without any Relay denials. Any idea what this can be? And how to get this right immediately after boot up? Thanks, Rob. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
