Greetings GNU/Linuxer's,
I am hoping someone might be able to help me with the access_db
feature in sendmail. Here's what I did to try and get it to work. I
made a file /etc/mail/access containing one line followed by a newline,
is the newline ok to have in there? (username changed to protect the
guilty)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] REJECT
then ran...
makemap hash access < access
Then I edited my sendmail.mc(inserted at bottom of this message) and
ran sendmailconfig and said 'Y' to use the current sendmail.mc file.
The config ran with no errors. Then I said yes to restart sendmail with
the new config. Then I wrote myself an e-mail and tried to send it off.
But the mailq command said 'Connection refused by localhost'....
