Hello,
I've defined SMART_HOST to be a specific server, lets call it foo.bar.
com. However, when I send a test mail using 'sendmail -t', sendmail tries to use mx.bar.
com, which subsequently rejects my mail. I've verified that foo.bar.
com works and that mx.bar.
com does not work (yay telnet). I've recompiled sendmail.mc vi make, make -C and m4. I've verified the DS entry in sendmail.cf. I've restarted sendmail correctly. I'm not sure how to proceed at this point. Any ideas?
Here is my SMART_HOST line:
define(SMART_HOST',foo.bar.
com')dnl
...and here is the result of a test mail. It never tries to use foo.bar.
com, instead it uses mx.bar.
com.
$ echo subject: test; echo | sendmail -Am -v -flocaluser --
[email protected].
com subject: test

And last, here is a test mail sent using foo.bar.com:
