I'm running FreeBSD-2.1. Everything works fine. EXCEPT: sendmail receives and delivers emails for all users with usernames all lowercase, BUT when sending email to users with usernames that include also uppercase-letters (like Test@bla.bla), sendmail brings the following error: "Test@bla.bla... User unknown", when sending it with mail. After this i (the sender) receive a mail from MAILER-DAEMON saying: . . . Subject: Returned mail: User unknown . . Test@bla.bla (unrecoverable error) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 550 Test@bla.bla... User unknown "Test" is a user on my machine "bla.bla" How can i force sendmail to deliver mail to users with uppercase-letters in their usernames ? Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot. Bye, Darius. email: moos@degnet.baynet.de
