Hey Jason- I would suggest reading up on virtusertable in regards to the actual mailboxes for incoming mail. As for the relaying, you need to add either your IP or the name that your IP resolves too to the sendmail.cw file (if sendmail 8.9 something) or the local-host-allow file if newer then that. www.sendmail.org has some pretty good docs on this and I would prefer not to rewrite them in this email :) I have never used a sendmail from the ports, so I don't know the "defaults" that they have setup or anything, so I won't be of much help there.

I feel stupid.. I'm trying to setup POP and SMTP internet mail servers on my box. I have a domain (jason-n3xt.org). On my box I have popper set to run for POP and sendmail for SMTP. On my laptop I can setup Outlook Express for my POP server and it connects and checks mail fine. I can't seem to figure out how to setup sendmail to work for internet mail. I think it has something to do with aliases, but I don't know. Here is the error message from Outlook Express: The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was 'res02jw5@gte.net'. Subject 'test', Account: 'jason-n3xt.org', Server: 'jason-n3xt.org', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 5.7.1 <res02jw5@gte.net>... Relaying denied', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550, Error Number: 0x800CCC79 On the server I get: jason-n3xt sendmail[226]: eBMFVUt00226: ruleset=check_rcpt, arg1=< res02jw5@gte.net >, relay=crtntx1-ar3-098-023.dsl.gtei.net [4.33.98.23], reject=550 5.7.1 < res02jw5@gte.net>... Relaying denied jason-n3xt sendmail[229]: eBMFVgt00229: SYSERR(root): hash map "Alias0": missing map file /etc/mail/aliases.db: No such file or directory I've read man sendmail but I didn't learn much... I also have a problem with incoming mail being to the server. Again I think I'm missing something in the setup. My isp's mail server returns the error: ----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to jason-n3xt.org.: >>> RCPT To:<jason@jason-n3xt.org> <<< 550 5.1.1 <jason@jason-n3xt.org>... User unknown 550 <jason@jason-n3xt.org>... User unknown I'm not even really sure where to start there... I know it's a lot but if anyone can help I will be eternally greatful. =) --- ------------------------------------------------------- | Jason P.
