Facing problem in Sendmail 3.13
 

Hi,

I configured the sendmail 3.11 to connect to realy server for sendmail the outgoing mails, it worked fine it is able to send mails throught relay server.

Output:
echo hai | mail -v -s wel user@abc.com
user@abc.com... Connecting to smtp.abc.com via relay...
220 smtp.abc.com ESMTP
>>> EHLO hostname.abc.com
250-smtp.abc.com
250-8BITMIME
250 SIZE 104857600
>>> MAIL From:<root@hostname.abc.com> SIZE=49
250 sender <root@hostname.abc.com> ok
>>> RCPT To:<user@abc.com>
250 recipient <user@abc.com> ok
>>> DATA
354 go ahead
>>> .
250 ok: Message 771735492 accepted
user@abc.com... Sent (ok: Message 771735492 accepted)
Closing connection to smtp.abc.com
>>> QUIT
221 smtp.abc.com


Same setup i followed to configure sendmail 3.13 to connect to relay server for sending outgoing mails, but it is connecting to the localhost instaed of relay server. (DS entry in sendmail.cf is exists)

output:
echo hai | mail -v -s wel user@abc.com
user@abc.com... Connecting to [127.0.0.1] via relay...
220 hostname.abc.comESMTP Sendmail 8.13.1/8.11.6; Fri, 21 Dec 2007 00:23:40 -0500

The setup is the same just double check your cf file.
