Sendmail Alias Problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have 6 workstations running RHE4.0. All of them have the same
/etc/aliases file. I have aliased root to my corporate email address
(root: me@xxxxxxxxxxx). On 5 of the 6 workstations any mail going to
root gets forwarded correctly. On one workstation it doesn't and I can't
figure out why. I also have the same /etc/mail/sendmail.cf files on all
workstations and have run the newaliases command and restarted sendmail
many time trying to troubleshoot this problem. If you look in the
/var/log/maillog file on a system that works you get this information:

Jan 16 14:37:33 turmoil sendmail[7975]: k0GMbXYu007975: to=root,
ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay,
pri=30044, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent

relay=webmail.company.com. [160.60.5.182], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (OK -
Data received)

On the system that doesn't work you get this information:

Jan 16 14:38:57 chaos sendmail[20941]: k0GMcvub020941: to=root,
ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay,
pri=30043, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent

mailer=relay, pri=120373, relay=webmail.company.com. [160.60.5.182],
dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (OK - Data received)

Got any ideas what's causing this problem?
