hello,
I am using sendmail 8.12 in Redhat Linux9.0 to send mail.It sends the message
between the
internal network. But it doesnot send the message to the external network.
I want to send mail to user@xxxxxxxxxxxx But it is not sending mail.The
following logs are generated in maillog .
A couple of things to check:
host -t mx hotmail.com
should show hotmail.com MX records, you don't need to know what they are but sendmail does and it needs them. If this doesn't work, check your DNS set up (compare what you've got with what your ISP says you should have, check your ISP's web pages etc).
Next
telnet mx1.hotmail.com smtp
You should get a connection almost immediately. If not, check your network connectivity -- can you get yo google, for example? Do you have a firewall somewhere that's blocking SMTP (port 25)? All sorts of things could've gone wrong....
