Hello,
I finally managed to configure my mail server at home on my gateway with
sendmail/qpopper. I am able to receive my mail from default
root(root@snoopy) account to any of my other local accounts(e.g
Sundar@eSaravana.com). But when I try to send mail from any of my local
accounts(Sundar@eSaravana.com) to itself(Sundar@eSaravana.com) -- I have
just created only one account -- I get following error message
Sending failed:
a SMTP error occurred.
Command: MAIL.
Response: 501 5.1.8 .. Domain of sender address
sundar@esaravanana.com exist.
My local DNS server runs on another machine and the domain is
--esaravana.com
And my sendmail configuration is as follows
snoopy:~ # sendmail -d0.1
Version 8.11.2
Compiled with: LDAPMAP MAP_REGEX LOG MATCHGECOS MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7
NAMED_BIND NETINET NETINET6 NETUNIX NEWDB NIS NISPLUS QUEUE

(canonical domain name) $j = snoopy.esaravana.com

========================================================
Recipient names must be specified
Any help!
Sundar
