mails out failed!!!!1
Dear forum members, am setting up a web based email system and have managd to configure squirrelmail as the MUA, apache is working properly, imap /pop3 are all doing well.
Sending and recieving messages locally and on the network is working fine for only people with the accounts created eg jude@myorg.com to someone@myorg.com. The problem now is any of the above accounts to send mails like to someone@yahoo.com. It doesn't work at all!!! plz help me? I get an errror like ---- the following address had permanent fatal errors----- <someone@yahoo.com> (reason:550 Host unknown) help help!!!!!!!! |
First of all what smtp mailer are you using?
Second: it sounds like your /etc/resolv.conf is misconfigured. what happens when you do a nslookup on yahoo.com? |
mails out failed!!!!!!
HiArclinux!
I dont have any smtp mailer!(clearly what do u mean by smtp mailer), coz am using sendmail. Is it different from that? Second in the /etc/resolv.conf guess it's not misconfigured? coz when i issue the command i get: nameserver "ip addresss of the mail server" Third when i do nslookup yahoo i get: server: "ipaddress of the mail server" Address: "ipaddress of the mail server"#53 Non Authoritative Answer Name yahoo.com Address 216.109.112.135 Name yahoo.com Address 66.94.234.113 Below is a message that is displayed when i tried to send a mail to my account rwakajude01@yahoo.com The original message was received at Fri, 28 Dec 2007 09:05:56 +0200 from localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] ----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <rwakajude01@yahoo.com> (reason: 550 Host unknown) ----- Transcript of session follows ----- 550 5.1.2 <rwakajude01@yahoo.com>... Host unknown (Name server:"ipaddress of the mail server": host not found) NB: Am using Redhat Linux 9.0 as the enviroment,squirrelmail,sendmail,php,apache,pop3/imap4.
