Sorry about not supplying a subject line. This web interface mail-thingy doesn't warn on empty subject. Here goes again.... I have loaded RH9 on my RH8 box, and now I am having trouble getting sendmail to receive mail. It sends just fine. I use fetchmail (and a . fetchmailrc file in /root) in a cron. I now get the following error: .fetchmail: SMTP connect to localhost failed fetchmail: SMTP transaction error while fetching from smtp.tds.net localhost, localhost.localdomain, are both in the access file and in the local-host-names, and I have as usual changed DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=192.168.0.3, Name=MTA')dnl to remove the 127.0.0.1 and changed to the IP address above. Finally, /etc/sysconfig/sendmail has daemon=yes and queue=1h So, there is something obvious I am missing. Can anyone help? TIA Cheers-- Charles
