Hi all, I having a problem with my sendmail server running on centos 5.7 x64. Sometimes when we send an email to microsoft exchange servers, sendmail says deferred or timeout. I do not know what is happening. Here is some details; [root@avgw ~]# sendmail -v -qRxxx@xxxxxxxxxx Running /var/spool/mqueue/q0B7caw9023076 (sequence 1 of 2) <xxx@xxxxxxxxxx>...
