I have only tried using the script as that's all i need to use sendmail for as all my emails are done on another pc. I know it's a sendmail problem though as before i decided to re-install sendmail after playing about with too many settings, it was sending emails to my *@domain address fine, but...

Thanks RhythmAce I have tried this FEATURE(`relay_local_from')dnl with listing the domain in local-host names, but am still getting this mail log: May 9 06:52:13 xyz sendmail[17826]: i49AqD21017826: from=apache, size=451, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200405091052.i49AqD21017826@def.co.uk>...

Please can anyone help? Could I alter my server settings so it doesn't know my domain email addresses are "local" - therefore it will email them outside the localdomain?? I am desperate to get this working, and it has to be a simple setting, but I cannot find the answer on any forum??

Thanks RhythmAce Ok I put a dnl # in front of the DAEMON_OPTIONS line: dnl # DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl and ran m4 I went to the local host names file and added my server ip address on a line and also my web server on the next. One question is do i put...

I have started this new thread as the problem is more simple now! Redhat 9.0 sendmail 8.12.8-9.90 I have managed to get external emails sent with a membership php program using sendmail, but have a problem with any emails in my domain (even though i receive all my emails for this in another pc...

After a lot of testing, i reinstalled sendmail to default and set it up using some instructions i found on the web. I have managed to get external emails sent now, but have a problem with any emails in my domain (even though i receive emails in another pc). What appears to happen is any email...

Now i have managed to alter the php.ini file which allows a sendmail-f command to be set to change email to any email address. Problem is this sends mail but it gets redirected in hotmail.com to the spam folder. Now this is a new issue, surely it must be possible to alter the sendmail...

Sorry i made an error in the last post - should read: Return-Path: apache@localhost.localdomain Envelope-To: test@xyz.com Received: from [*.*.*.110]([*.*.*.110] HELO:localhost.localdomain) by def.ghi.net.uk for test@xyz.com; Mon, 03 May 2004 20:44:47 +0100 Received: from...

The program actually sends the email through sendmail using a different email address (for this example webmaster@abc1.com) and i can alter that ok, but on the sendmail log i get as per my first post. See email properties below for test email received in my outlook express inbox (this had no...

Maybe fsnet rejects emails from @localhost (i.e. default) domains as they are not "true addresses"? So, how can i alter the from setting to read eg webmaster@abc1.com? I think that should make the fsnet mail server receive my emails. Maybe other mail servers don't reject such emails (as i have...

Thanks again I appear to already have apache setup like this in my pawwsd file: apache:x:48:48:Apache:/var/www:/sbin/nologin Also i think i misled you about the outlook express email working - that is from another of my Pc's!

Thanks Rhinokiller - fastest reply ever! Any idea how i would add this user account? Also why do other email addresses get sent ok (eg to a *@hotmail address)?

I have Redhat 9.0 running sendmail & have a program using sendmail to contact subscribing members of a website. Basically it works fine for email addresses such as abc@hotmail.com , but when it emails something like abc@xyz.fsnet.co.uk i get the DSN: User Unknown in the sendmail log (see below)...

Thanks for the great links. Loads to take in there - but I removed Microsoft Client for Networks and all is running very fast now. There must be a way to prevent this pause every time a new window opens - will have to read the links to see what options I have. Thanks again!

I'm running 2 Windows 98 computers on an ADSL modem/4 port router. DHCP is my chosen method of addresses. All works fine, fast downloads etc, but since I've installed it I find a 4 or 5 second pause when opening a new window in internet explorer, or in other programs when I want to open a file -...
