In my /etc/aliases file I have the entry: root: my-logs@myisp.com hoping that my messages should end up as email messages. Doing a [root@syvert log]# tail maillog lists messages like Jan 24 08:19:24 syvert sendmail[4646]: h0M2327q001033: to=<my- logs@myisp.com>, ctladdr=<root@syvert.la3sg.net> (0/0), delay=2+05:16:11, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=9840374, relay=mailfront.server.myisp.com., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Operation timed out with mailfront.server.myisp.com. Apparently my isp's mail server rejects root@syvert.la3sg.net since it does not resolve, while emails to syvert@la3sg.net are accepted. How can I change the email address of my v4.7 server from root@syvert.la3sg.net to syvert@la3sg.net ? During setup I have specified host names like sexy.la3sg.net syvert.la3sg.net nina.la3sg.net etc.. for the PCs on my LAN leaving them all in the domain la3sg.net Is there a better way to solve my problem than to change the email addresses on each of the PCs? regards from Kjell / LA3SG To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
