Sorry, my last posting goes only to Wilhelm itself. This is my answer: Wilhelm Tesnaar wrote:

Sorry, the error message comes from sendmail under the /var/log/mail file where it is saying Relaying denied. I have added the user under access.db, the domain, everything I have tried. The only time it works, is where I place the Ip address of the user in there.
... I had a short discussion with another postmaster about Your problem. We agreed, that the entry of the mail address in Your access.db should allow the relaying. Sorry for another dump question: Did you "makemap" the access.db? And: Did You try to write a finer version of entry: From: user@unique.domain RELAY It should work since SuSE 7.1's sendmail with "From:" and "To:" specification. Another 2 proposals: 1) Maybe You should try to enable a sendmail feature for sendmail.cf: FEATURE(`delay_checks') You have to recreate sendmail.cf with "m4" from an .mc file with the above feature. follows description of delay_checks from sendmails cf-README: delay_checks The rulesets check_mail and check_relay will not be called when a client connects or issues a MAIL command, respectively. Instead, those rulesets will be called by the check_rcpt ruleset; they will be skipped under certain circumstances. See "Delay all checks" in "ANTI-SPAM CONFIGURATION CONTROL". 2) You can use SMTP AUTH, recommended sometimes in this thread. My information about SMTP AUTH for sendmail is: Since SuSE 7.1 there is a package in "sec": sendmail-tls Substitute standard sendmail package with this one, You get support for TLS and SMTP AUTH.
