Hi, can this be replaced by a hostname?
Thanks, Ben

Dennis,
Your defualt setting in the sendmail.cf file prevents sendmial from recieving mail accept on the local machine (127.0.0.1)
DAEMON OPTIONS('Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1,Name=mta')dnl
This should be all on one line. Your email may have truncated it.
The machine which you are sending mail must have a valid FQDN. With junk mail running rampid these days, most properly adminstered MTAs will reject mail from a host which dosen't reverse resolve or dosen't have a proper host lookup. localhost.localdomain is a dummy hostname used for looping on a single machine (or sometimes on a closed network).

The domain of the machine is localhost.localdomain.
I want only to be able to send email (to my email address and a work address) logs to myname@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
I do not want to receive mail only send root mail and log files.
Is there a simple way of doing this.
I have had assistance previously which helped a lot.
