Hi David,
My mail server runs MDaemon. I have config'd sendmail to forward all messages to MDaemon, which has the recipients' mailboxes. smbuthia@companyis an account on mdaemon. When I do mail -s "Test" smbuthia@company, I receive the test message in my Outlook - looks like sendmail is configured ok, ama? But when I try sending a tesmt mail to root, even with a .forward file in root's home, sendmail attempts to deliver to root@localhost on Mdaemon, which account MDaemon doesn't recognize, so it replies with a 5XX error saying relaying not allowed, user unknown - or something to that effect. that's why I thot that the problem is that sendmail is not honouring the aliases.
Here's some lines from my sendmail.mc
LOCAL_DOMAIN(`localhost.localdomain')dnl MASQUERADE_AS(`mycompany.com')dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl
Should I decomment the MASQUERADE_DOMAIN line which is commented?
I am not sure about that Simon, have you tried to forward this query to the sendmail mailling list, seems everyone here has been challenged by this :) -- ˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙˙ 'spɹɐƃǝɹ ıʞnɾu pıʌɐp
