I have set up the relay-domains file, relay-local-hosts file and the access file. I then ran make. I may not have the file names exact, I'm at home now and the machine is at the office. At any rate, no matter what I do, the box will not send mail out to the world. DNS does work. I have checked the faq and docs on the sendmail site, read several web pages (though I don't know what version those were relating to). The BSD box is on the lan right now, but it could be just as easily put on the dmz, along with the web server. Could someone please just explain what is needed to make it send mail out to the world from just one machine on the lan. It can't be as hard as it appears to be. Thanks, Chip
