I performed an apt upgrade to my old Debain box. Most of the things worked very well straight away, a few I managed to fix quite easy (with some help from this list, thanks) but there seems one remaining. This concerns sendmail and that has always been quite a mistery to me anyway :-) I have a UUCP mail configuration which has worked fine with sendmail 8.8.8-20. Now I have upgraded to 8.9.3-3 and did my best to reconfigure. I receive mail just fine. If I send mail from the console using Mutt it works fine (like this one), but is I use an client for smtp it never gets out. My /var/log/mail.info shows:
Feb 18 00:17:02 souterrain sendmail[844]: AAA00844: ruleset=check_rcpt, arg1=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=[192.168.1.117], reject=550 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... Relaying denied Feb 18 00:17:02 souterrain sendmail[844]: AAA00844: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=0, class=0, pri=0, nrcpts=0, proto=SMTP, relay=[192.168.1.117] This refers to some rule I do not understand... My current /etc/mail/sendmail.mc looks like: ------------------------------------------------- divert(-1) divert(0) VERSIONID(`@(#)sendmail.mc 8.9.1a (Linux) 19981026') OSTYPE(debian)dnl LOCAL_CONFIG FEATURE(nocanonify)dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl Cwavondel.xs4all.nl FEATURE(use_cw_file)dnl FEATURE(use_ct_file)dnl define(`confMAILER_NAME', `postmaster')dnl MAILER_DEFINITIONS MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl LOCAL_CONFIG MASQUERADE_AS(avondel.xs4all.nl)dnl ## Custom configurations below (will be preserved) MAILER(uucp)dnl define(`UUCP_MAX_SIZE', 0) define(`SMART_HOST', uucp-dom:xs4all) -------------------------------------------- And the old one which did work was: -------------------------------------------- divert(-1) divert(0) VERSIONID(`@(#)sendmail.mc 8.7 (Linux) 3/5/96') OSTYPE(debian)dnl FEATURE(nocanonify)dnl FEATURE(masquerade_envelope)dnl FEATURE(use_cw_file)dnl FEATURE(use_ct_file)dnl FEATURE(nodns)dnl define(`confMAILER_NAME', `postmaster')dnl define(`confTO_QUEUEWARN', `1d')dnl define(`confTO_QUEUERETURN', `3d')dnl MAILER(local)dnl MAILER(smtp)dnl Cwavondel.xs4all.nl MASQUERADE_AS(avondel.xs4all.nl)dnl ## Custom configurations below (will be preserved) MAILER(uucp)dnl define(`UUCP_MAX_SIZE', 0) define(`SMART_HOST', uucp-dom:xs4all) -------------------------------------------- I would be very pleased if someone could help me find out what is going wrong here. I am kind of lost... Thanks. -- Erik van der Meulen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
