This is really not the correct forum, you should send to suse-linux-e@suse.com That said: It has nothing to do with sendmail. Your hostname, lpar, is not listed in a public DNS database. This would need to be done by the DNS admins at dori.com.

Hallo, I m using SuSE 8.0, and i have sendmail configured so i can send emails using sendmail, and the received email will have the adress hikha@lpar.dori.com in the <from> field but when i try to send an email to this adress (hikha@lpar.dori.com) from a gmail account (for example) it fails and it bounces and i receive the email telling that: **************************************************** This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently: hikha@lpar.dori.com

We suppose here that the domaine lpar.dori.com is already registred so when i tape: $> host lpar.dori.com lpar.dori.com has adress xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx $> host xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.IN.ADDR.ARPA domain name pointer lpar.dori.com

what i have to do in order to send emails to hikha@lpar.dori.com and to retrieve them. ? must i configure a pop3 server or what ?

thanks (you can reply me to: sos_linux@hotmail.com)
