I am very new at this so please be gentle. The current box is built with 3.2 Release and Sendmail 8.9. The person who set it up is no longer available and I have been given the task of upgrading to the more secure 4.2 with Sendmail 8.11. I am also using Popper. The only thing this machine will be used for is sending and receiving outside mail and only for one domain. On the old machine I noticed all users have a .user.pop file in /var/mail. These are not being created on the new machine and I could not send or receive until I created one for my own account. Now I can at least pop my mail from a remote machine but still cannot send and the error message in the mail log is reject 550 Relaying denied. Actually removing the ability to relay from undesirables was why I started this project to begin with but I would like to send from my own domain :) I am able to forward mail outside from the server itself just not from a remote workstation on the network. The files I have edited based on the config files of the 3.2 machine are: rc.conf inetd.conf db.mydomain db.192.168... (inside) db.213.103... (outside) localhost.rev named.conf aliases (including running 'newaliases') sendmail.cf local-host-names I would include config info if I knew what would be helpful. I'm sure it's something simple I've overlooked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not on the list so please respond directly.
