Subject:   sendmail dials out for local delivery
Message-ID:  <86n1c370vj.fsf@basilisk.locus>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Why does local mail delivery cause ppp to dial out ? I use 

 ppp -auto ispname

and if I do

 echo "hi" | mail harry

then this causes the machine to dial out to my isp. I start sendmail
with

 sendmail -bd -q30m

This has only started recently ! I used to be able to send mail
locally quite easily I'm sure.

Please help: this is really annoying me ! Here's sendmail.mc
