What does your /var/log/maillog tell you? I relay all our sub.domain type of mail off one server, and configure that server specifically for that. This way I config all of my other servers to point at that one box and I only have to maintain one source of relay-domains and LocalName type files. Make sure your name resolution is working as well.

All machines can use their local sendmail to email their local users. Also, all machines can use their local sendmail to email any address on the internet. However... None of the machines can use their local sendmail to email any address on the same domain as the machine itself, for example: The machines are called: host1.sub.domain.com host2.sub.domain.com host3.sub.domain.com Each machine can happily email hobbs at mongeese.co.uk, for example, and each machine can email username@localhost. None of the machines can email username@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx though. How can this be setup, and why is it happening? The MX record for sub.domain.com points to our rather old Cobalt Raq mail server. Can anyone suggest a way to get sendmail to work properly for our own domain as well??
