Since upgrading to both my machines (firewall and workstation) to 4.6, they are rejecting mail messages sent between them. Notice hte log excerpts: Aug 19 23:40:07 jamestown sendmail[87376]: g7K4e7Da087376: ruleset=check_mail, arg1=<jtm@localhost.21stcentury.net>, relay=tater.21stcentury.net [192.168.1.2], reject=553 5.5.4 <jtm@localhost.21stcentury.net>... Real domain name required for sender address The sender address has been changed to "jtm@localhost.21stcentury.net" from "jtm@tater.21stcentury.net" and I think this is what's cauing the rejection. Prior to the upgrade, mail from periodic scripts was being forwarded without problem and the addresses looked like <root@tater.21stcentury.net>. How do I get sendmail to stop substituting "localhost" for the real hostname in these headers? TIA jtm@locahost;) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
