One thought is that your sendmail doesn't understand that it is meant to handle the domain itself, albeit only for you. Try creating the file /etc/mail/sendmail.cw and putting your domain in it, and restart sendmail. //Anders On Tuesday 13 November 2001 18.57, Nick Webb wrote:
I just thought of that a few minutes ago, and it really helped. What is happening is that mail coming into my workstation is being sent to our server, even thought my box has no setting to send it there (I don't think so anyway). The only thing I can think of is that sendmail is looking at the DNS MX record (which is our mail server) and sending all mail there . . . is this a good guess? Any way to stop it outside of changing the MX record?

Have a look in /var/log/mail. It should give you some indication of what is failing.

Hi,
When I got some new disks this weekend I went and did a fresh install of SuSE 7.2. In doing so I setup mail the same I did before, installing sendmail, procmail, and fetchmail, and used the same procmail and fetchmail config files. But, for some reason, I don't get any of my mail! If I run fetchmail it seems to download the messages from the server, but they don't make it to my inbox. Even if I just send a message as root to my user, I never get it . . . any clues on what to look for?
Thanks.
