Is it possible to send mail to an IP address? I put the IP address in
sendmail.cw, and if I send the mail from the same machine sendmail is on, it
works. But if I do it from any other machine, either outside our network or
in, I get the following error in maillog :

Oct 10 19:31:45 solo sendmail[4201]: TAA04199: to=shawn@209.150.92.68, ctladdr=shawn 
(1028/1001), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, 
relay=209.150.92.68, stat=Host unknown (Name server: 209.150.92.68: 
host not found)


Any suggestions would be appreciated, even though this message is really off
topic. :-)

Thanks.
