Hi

Until a few days ago, sendmail was working fine. But now - each time I try

to send an e-mail, I get the following error message:

...

sendmail -q -v

Running /var/spool/mqueue/j4RIjQq03709 (sequence 1 of 1) ... Connecting to mail.messaging.ch. via esmtp... 220 mail.messaging.ch ESMTP server ready

What exactly is messaging.ch? The error message effectively means you are trying to rout email through it, and it is refusing. Or, rather, it is trying to treat gmx,ch as a local domain and then fails the user lookup So the problem is in the config of messaging.ch, whatever that is
