- I've been attempting to start handling mail for systems under mine via
- smtp and I'm getting one glitch I can't seem to debug. Someone out there
- should see the problem right away.
-
- I've always just set all my mail to my smart host with no problems. Now
- I need to be able to route mail to and for a system called 'wtad' which is
- a novell system running Pegasus. There is a Charon gateway called 'cms'
- which is the gateway for wtad.
-
- If I send mail to user "joeb@wtad", the cms SMTP debug window shows a
- connection from my system, then gets a RCPT for wtad!joeb@cms and promptly
- rejects it. I would think it should say "cms!joeb@wtad" but I can't seem
- to find where my system is switching the system names.
-
- Here is my entry in the paths file:
-
-
- cms.hauppaugeny.ncr.com cms!%s
- wtad.hauppaugeny.ncr.com cms!wtad!%s
-
- and my smtpinfo file:
-
- cms via-smtp:cms!%s
-
- I looked in the sendmail.cf file but it looks cryptic. I added a suggest
- entry for a rule:
-
- #R$*<@wtad.$D>$* $#tcp$@wtad.$D$:$1<@cms.$D>$2
-
- Does anyone know where this error may be comming from?
-
- Gracious thanks in advance for any help or suggestions,
-
