sendmail and dovecot


Dear All

I was installed sendmail in CentOS 5
I can send with Outlook express and I can check in server with mail command for received mail.
I was installed dovecot for pop3 ,I got send testing mail (sending so slow)

May 28 20:28:22 Cent-Test sendmail[3840]: n4SDwMGf003840: from=<mailtest@centos.justclick.yk>, size=6339, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<436DA84602D044A787319CB4AAC01093@MTKDesktop>, proto=SMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=host-15-101.internal.myantel.net.mm [192.168.15.101] (may be forged)
May 28 20:28:22 Cent-Test sendmail[3840]: n4SDwMGf003840: to=<test@centos.justclick.yk>, delay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=36339, dsn=4.4.3, stat=queued

===

I got receive (no email but no error for pop3 in outlook express)

May 28 20:28:30 Cent-Test dovecot: pop3-login: Login: user=<test>, method=PLAIN, rip=::ffff:192.168.15.101, lip=::ffff:192.168.15.240
May 28 20:28:30 Cent-Test dovecot: POP3(test): Disconnected: Logged out top=0/0, retr=0/0, del=0/0, size=0

So I checked again with mail command in server

its still in the queue waiting to be delivered. Most probably there is a problem with it, so its getting defered. you will see a delivery failure report after some time depending on how bouncing is configured (server can try for 5 days)

Normally a delivery failure report would be sent by the MTA to the original sender in the form of an email reply.
