"mydomain.com OK" "ALL_OHERS 550 We don't accept mail from spammers"

Thanks a lot for your help (I am a bloody beginner)

did you build the .db file new (makemap hash ...), and did you restart the sendmail-daemon ?

wow, you failed the first test. That's bad ;-). It looks like your config is kind of a mess. If you know anything about compiling, maybe you should download a new version and install that. If you like I could send you some basic config files I made for a friend of mine. With those you should be able to install a brand new version in about 30 minutes. Stefan
