Good people of the esteemed Redhat list...

I have a mail server, loki,  for my intranet.
The intranet uses company.home as the network domain.

The mail server has an external IP forwarded by the firewall and receives
mail for the domain company.com

Sometimes, rarely, when a user sends mail external domains, the mail is
refused.

Example:

The original message was received at Wed, 5 Feb 2003 11:33:30 -0400 from
apache@localhost

   ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
    (reason: 550 REQUESTED ACTION NOT TAKEN: DNS FAILURE)

   ----- Transcript of session follows -----
451 4.4.1 reply: read error from mailin-02.mx.aol.com.
451 4.4.1 reply: read error from mailin-01.mx.aol.com.
.... while talking to mailin-03.mx.aol.com.:
>>> MAIL From:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

In my /etc/mail/sendmail.mc I have:
MASQUERADE_DOMAIN(loki.company.home')dnl
MASQUERADE_AS(company.com)dnl

What more do I have to do to prevent this problem?
