service sendmail stop? whatever distro that is.. anyway, im using rhl 7.2 with sendmail 8.11.6. i kill it via /etc/rc.d/init.d/sendmail stop and it does die. then i restart it. and it does take the changes i make, cause it kills sendmail. i add this line FEATURE(`dnsbl', `bl.spamcop.net', `"Spam blocked see: http://spamcop.net/bl.shtml?"$&{client_addr}')dnl
then as i describe below recompile my .cf file.restart sendmail.and it dies. here is the client error Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'mail.mydomain.com', Server: 'mail.mydomain.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F while this is happening i get NO errors in maillog or messages. so im clueless as to whats going on. ----- Original Message ----- From: "System Services" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, May 01, 2002 1:41 PM Subject: Re: spamcop and sendmail and rhl 7.2 where the heck is config.m4!?? > I tried it this morning Jim before I replied to your post, and it took > right off running fine. > > I assume you did a "service sendmail stop" multiple times until you got > a "Fail" and then done "service sendmail start"??? > > What error is comming up? > > Check you mail.log and see if sendmail is successfully blocking anything > with spamcop. > > Jim Bija wrote: > > > > Ok.. thats fine..thing is i added the line that that URL tells me to add. > > Then i recompile my .cf with my new and 1 line added .mc file via: > > m4 /etc/mail/sendmail.mc > /etc/sendmail.cf which i think is the right > > way to do it right? > > Anyway, when i do this sendmail no longer works.
