Before I ran newaliases the log shows Jul 18 03:21:25 packbell sendmail[18319]: k6HELOqR016776: to=anne@xxxxxxxxx, delay=12:00:00, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=esmtp, pri=1111779, relay=smtp.mylan.net. [212.159.20.122], dsn=4.2.0, stat=Deferred: 450 <anne@xxxxxxxxx>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table Jul 18 03:21:25 packbell sendmail[18319]: k6HELOqS016776: to=anne@xxxxxxxxx, delay=11:59:59, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=1111928, relay=smtp.mylan.net. [212.159.20.122], dsn=4.2.0, stat=Deferred: 450 <anne@xxxxxxxxx>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table and now, after sending a test message to root@xxxxxxxxx, it shows Jul 18 12:21:53 packbell sendmail[25317]: k6F6u653002935: to=anne@xxxxxxxxx, ctladdr=<root@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> (0/0), delay=3+04:25:46, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=3902932, relay=smtp.mylan.net., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred yet the message has been delivered correctly this time. Hopefully that means that the problem is fixed, thanks, but I do wonder why the log refers to it as Deferred.
