I am running a machine which is on a dynamic dns ppp connection. The machines name is "optex", so when john mails david locally sendmail sees it as john@optex sending to david@optex it seems. Sendmail seems to have a problem with this, as the log states; Mar 29 22:51:18 optex sendmail[55008]: My unqualified host name (optex) unknown; sleeping for retry Whats the best way of dealing with this? I want to sendmail locally, send mail out masquerading, but we don't need sendmail to receive as the local users take off a pop server directly with their mail clients.
