It will not receive email, just send it from the localhost and another host that will send mail via a J2EE application. I setup sendmail to accept relaying from other hosts, and I don't recieve any errors when sending mail from others hosts or the local host (using sendmail -v ), but all the emails I send are stuck in the que and they can't seem to get out. I tried sending emails to my personal yahoo.com and netzero.net email accounts, and I receive no error messages, but when I check the que using "mailq", I see the following (my real email address was replayced with (my address)): l8NJtYPd010475 0 Sun Sep 23 14:55 (Deferred: Connection timed out with c.mx.mail.yahoo.com.) <(my address)@yahoo.com> l8NK2pNn010766 0 Sun Sep 23 15:02 (Deferred: Connection timed out with d.mx.mail.yahoo.com.) <(my address)@yahoo.com> l8NKGcw4011501* 48 Sun Sep 23 15:16 (Deferred: Connection timed out with mx.dca.untd.com.) <(my address)@netzero.net> DNS is setup properly because I can ping smtp.mail.yahoo.com as well as the MX addressed above. Any ideas? Thanks, Matt -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Help-with-sendmail-tf4505805.html#a12850343 Sent from the linux-admin mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
