Hi all and specially to Rodolfo,

I feel awkfully sorry for my stupidity.   Bear with me ok.

I can't sent the .mc file as I don't have one.  I have been editing the .cf
file since day one when I started using sendmail.

Can I do a reverse generation of the .mc file???

As to why do I so a sendmail restart instead of makemap hash
/etc/mail/access < /etc/mail/access/list, really sorry to say that "I'm
super lazy to remember to command of makemap hash ... ..."  thus I used
/sbin/service sendmail restart as I know that it will re-generate all the
.db files.

Regards

The system works pretty well. So, it is safe to assume that you are
allowing relaying somewhere else at which point AUTH is irrelevant.

Not "by default." But if it's properly configured, yes. You need to feed us
more information and more detail here, Moke; we're down to "it don't work"
but don't have data with which to come up with ideas on how to fix it.
