Yea, I tend to stick to the m4 macro version of the sendmail configs. I just find those two-letter commands too cryptic for me to remember. I need to make another tweak to my mail settup so mail I pop down with fetchmail from my regular ISP's e-mail address can be retained on my machine. Right now, I am set up to parse mail for my registered domain and that part works great but I'm not so sure stuff will work if it were sent to my name at isp.com. Probably need to add the ISP's domain to my virtual domains list. <HMMM> -----Original Message----- From: Charles Hallenbeck [mailto:chuckh@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, March 05, 2001 11:15 AM To: Speakup Distribution List Subject: pine, sendmail, and local mail. Steve - I think I am on top of this thing at long last. It turns out the idea of masquerading was the key, although the syntax you suggested is apparently not what my version of sendmail wanted. In the sendmail section on masquerading there is a "DM" command to which I appended my desired domain. I used the same syntax as Frank Carmichael suggested for the "DS" command, to which I appended my smtp address. Finally I made an entry of the form "CL" followed by user name for each user on my system needing local delivery, and those three changes were all it took to solve the problem. I can now send mail locally among my local users without triggering my demand dialing, and my outgoing mail carries the correct return address. Fantastic! I have not yet looked at email from Lynx, but I bet anything that it is now fixed too. Many thanks for your, Frankie's, Janina's, and everyone else's help. Janina - are you listening? It works!!!
