Sendmail relay configuration - RHEL 3.0

Sendmail relay configuration - RHEL 3.0

Hi.

The solution to my problem was quite simple in the end. I only had to create
the /etc/mail/service.switch file with the following content:

hosts files

aliases files

This way, sendmail doesn't try to resolve the email addresses using the DNS,
so I don't even need to configure the DNS client.

Tu sum up, I had to take the following steps:

- Include the ip of the mailhost in the /etc/hosts file.

- Edit the /etc/mail/sendmail.mc file, modify the SMART_HOST line
and create the new sendmail.cf.

- Edit the /etc/mail/submit.mc file, modify the last line, and
create the new submit.cf .

- Create the /etc/mail/service.switch file.

- Restart sendmail.

I hope this helps other people with the same problem.
