can't I receive or send mail


Redhat 7.2,

I have sendmail up and running 8.11.6-3.

Anyway, If I am on the Linux box I can send mail. However, If I use a windoz box to send mail I get an error.

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'xxxx.linux-dude.com', Server: 'xxxx.linux-dude.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

I also get this error when mail cannot be sent.

Deferred: Connection refused by xxxx.linux-dude.com

But I can receive mail that was sent from the linux box to itself using the windoz box.

Also, if I send mail from any account like hotmail or yahoo the email dissapears. it never gets to the server.

--------------------------------------
Sendmail config using webmin
--------------------------------------

I have

local domain set
'xxxx.linux-dude.com'

trusted user
myself

outgoing domain
'xxxx.linux-dude.com'

relay domain
'xxxx.linux-dude.com'

alias
myself.

----------------------------------------------------------------
my access file looks like this

localhost.localdomain RELAY
localhost RELAY
127.0.0.1 RELAY

xx.93.xx.240 RELAY
192.168.1.100 RELAY
192.168.1.101 RELAY
xxxx.linux-dude.com RELAY

------------------------------------------------------------------

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
