Sendmail problems

Post by Paul F.A. Meye » Mon, 01 Jun 1998 04:00:00



Hi All,

I encountered a problem when setting up sendmail. When I send mail
locally, it doesn't deliver it properly. I use Pine to send messages
(and receive). My sendmail version is 8.8.something.
I'll give the loggings here:
------
May 27 00:09:53 k014r sendmail[124]: AAA00124:



May 27 00:09:54 k014r sendmail[125]: AAA00124:

delay=00:00:02, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=local, stat=Service unavailable
May 27 00:09:54 k014r sendmail[125]: AAA00124: AAA00125: DSN: Service
unavailable

delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=local, stat=Service unavailable
May 27 00:09:55 k014r sendmail[125]: AAA00125: AAB00125: return to
sender: Servi
ce unavailable
May 27 00:09:56 k014r sendmail[125]: AAB00125: to=root, delay=00:00:01,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, stat=Service unavailable
May 27 00:09:56 k014r sendmail[125]: Saved message in
/var/tmp/dead.letter
------
What does the message "DSN: Service unavailable" mean? And what can I do
to solve this problem.

I'm thinking that sendmail can't run the mailer to deliver the mail, and it
dies.  Look in /etc/sendmail.cf and find the "Mlocal" line.  See if the
program specified actually exists.
