For a long term solution... try qmail. from qmail.org install from source (not rpms). no upgrade hassles and easy to maintain/configure and secure.

I am having problems getting sendmail to forward mail to our exchange server.
I have had no problems with this until release 9.
When I send mail using the -v switch I get the following.
[barrys@xxxxxxxxx barrys]$ echo "test" | mail -v barrys@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
sxhealth.co.nz: Name server timeout
barrys@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Transient parse error -- message queued for future deli
very
barrys@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx queued
The hosts file and resolv.conf file are configured correctly. I have no problems pinging sxhnoex2.sxhealth
I am using the following 2 options in sendmail.cf
define(`SMART_HOST',`smtp:sxhnoex2.sxhealth')dnl FEATURE(`nocanonify')dnl
I am doing the changes in /etc/mail
I do notice there is a new config file submit.cf , does this have to be modified?
I have spent ages trying different things , searching and reading.
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated
