I'm trying to configure sendmail to send most email via my own smtp server and email to (ex.) aol.com via my provider's smtp server. I modified the /etc/mail/mailertable to include.. aol.com smtp:smtp.comcast.net ..I restart sendmail and it fails. Must I do something to rebuild the mailertable.db file? I'm using SuSE 7.3.

I believe you need: hash /etc/mail/mailertable.db then rcsendmail restart But I use postfix which is standard in SuSE 8.1 and cannot check. google is your friend. It suggests: http://www.linuxgazette.com/issue34/lisse.html it suggests: makemap hash < mailertable mailertable Postfix is *much* easier to understand. -- Patrick Shanahan Please avoid TOFU and trim >quotes< http://wahoo.no-ip.org Registered Linux User #207535 icq#173753138 @ http://counter.li.org Linux, a continuous *learning* experience
