Thanks for the reply. It does work when I have the entries in sendmail.cw and no DM entries. According to The Complete FreeBSD (p. 465-466), it should work when I have DM entries but no sendmail.cw file. I'm just curious as to what is going on and why DM doesn't seem to work.

Zucker Cc: 'freebsd-questions@freebsd.org' Subject: Re: Can't get aliasing to work for sendmail /etc/mail/sendmail.cw should contain a list of hosts for which you wish to receive mail. Therefore, you should have: zookware.com www.zookware.com mail.zookware.com in /etc/mail/sendmail.cw if you wish to receive mail for those three hosts. In addition to putting DMzookware.com, try updating ruleset 94. Make it read: ################################################################### ### Ruleset 94 -- convert envelope names to masqueraded form ### ################################################################### S94 R$+ $@ $>93 $1 #R$* < @ *LOCAL* > $* $: $1 < @ $j . > $2 Note: the spaces between R$+ and $@ are TABS. If you include spaces, sendmail will bomb. Joe Clarke On Sun, 24 Oct 1999, Daniel F.
