I have a strange sendmail problem, and I'm thinking i've just been looking at it for too long and need some in site. When I go to send mail it trys to connect to localhost.mydomain.com then lists my external ip address instead of connecting to my local bind dns server. So of course the connection times out. What did i do screwy to get this does anyone know ? Thanks Caleb Storms

Note that the last version (8.12.6) is more complicated and you can find your answer on the comp.sendmail.??? newsgroup. Merry XMas to all.
