ive   seen you reply to a couple questions so i thought you might be  able  to
help me out.  I'm using FreeBSD 2.0 off the walnut creek cd
Right now i have a unix box  unix.flnet.com  set  up to  recieve mail, and my
provider has  the mx  records setup so that mail for flnet.com and
cyberstation.flnet.com (same machine) are also sent to unix.flnet.com
now  what i need  is  for the mail  going to flnet.com  to be queued  for uucp
delivery.  Whenever i try to send something to whover@flnet.com it comes back
with  user unknown. i guess because its  still trying to deliver it  locally to
the unix.flnet.com machine.

heres my .mc file   ive tried a number of different  things, using a
mailertable, using smart_host. and i always  get the   same

 include (`../m4/cf.m4')dnl
 VERSIONID...
 OSTYPE (bsd4.4')dnl
 Cwflnet.com
 define(`confDOMAIN_NAME', `$w.$m'))dnl
 FEATURE('nodns')
 FEATURE(mailertable, dbm /etc/mailertable)
 EXPOSED_USER(`postmaster hostmaster webmaster')
 MAILER(local)
 MAILER(smtp)
 MAILER(uucp)


 my mailertable

 flnet.com  uucp-dom:flnet

 made with makemap dbm mailertable < mailertable

 i also did this with the hash way
 neither seemed to work then  thought maybe  i needed  to  add the following
 becaue of the  MX record

 LOCAL_RULE_0
 R$+ < @  flnet.com >    $#uucp $@ flnet $: $1

 i added this right after the  MAILER(local) and  tried  differnet variations
 too

 Im begining  to get  myself more confused then anything since it  seems  none
 of  these work.  im makeing my .cf file by

 m4 flnet.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf

 im i missing something ???  thougth  maybe  i had to  add something like
 204.176.215.10 flnet.com flnet  to my  /etc/hosts file    that didnt work
 either, do i ned anything like that?

 mail goes  out  fine from uucp to unix.flnet.com and out via smtp but  the
 incoming for flnet.com is  whats screwed   up.

 id appreciate anything you can do to clue me in, since i havent been able to
 provide  mail to people on   flnet.com since the system went up
