Is this important information? It still works the old way in /usr/share/sendmail-cf/cf with the ./Build script.

Not sure what prompted the tone of your comments but maybe you can tell me why I would run an nslookup on a domain that is unrelated to anything posted here. Further, mail comes to me at hgp@global.net even though global.net is another one that cannot be nslooked up. (with my ISP's nameservers) The smarthost posted was mail.sbcglobal.yahoo.com. It cannot be looked up either (with my ISP's nameservers), but it works when I use it with a client (forte-agent) on a friends winxp machine. Both machines recieve mail addressed to hgp@sbcglobal.net with no problem. > yahoo is telling you that - still have yet to see what any of this > has to do with pacbell. So you can rest easy... yahoo and pacbell are interlocked here in San Diego. My pacbell dsl service uses the posted addresses. When my modem came, it has `sbc yahoo' printed all over it. Once again I'm curious how this fits into the discussion. You might want to follow the advice given with the nslookup tool before posting... try dig on the posted addresses. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
