A: thanks grant. after reading what sendmail says about relaying denied, it occurred to me that it may be a dns lookup problem. so i added the sending hostname to the /etc/hosts file on the mailserver. in addition, i added the sending servers' domain to the relay-domains file on the mailhost and -HUP'd sendmail. works perfectly. what a great learning experience. rf Original Post: > >when i try to mailx a file to yahoo.com, i get > >relaying denied on the server i send it from. > > > >but on the mailhost, mailx to yahoo.com works just > >fine. > > > >what's the catch in sendmail.cf to get this > working? > > > >thank you very much. > > > >rf __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
