sendmail relay for local addresses
 

Hi,

I have some problems regarding sendmail relay configuration.

I have a redhat server named server1.mydomain.com
It this server, sendmail is installed with default configuration.
I only added the following line to my sendmail.mc :

define(`SMART_HOST', `smtp.mydomain.com')dnl

So when I use the following command :
echo "Test" | mail myemailaddress@yahoo.com

It works fine and sends email to my yahoo account.

The problem is when I am working as a normal user for example "john" and run the following command :

echo "Test" | mail john

It still tries to use smart relay for mail delivery , so an email to john@server1.mydomain.com will be stuck in our company mail server (smtp.mydomain.com)

What I need to know is to find a way to prevent my SendMail to send these email to SmartHost and just store them in local mailbox of user john.

Thanks in advance.

use this command to send mail and show me the output


and show me the message logs
