by Solaris X86 2.4.
----------------
I have successfully established a PPP connection with my ISP
(Demon Internet) and am able to FTP, ping and run Mosaic
quite the thing.
However I am not able to send or receive mail.
I imagine that there is a problem with my sendmail.cf
When I try to send mail external to the system the
machine will happily make the dial up PPP connection
but then complains about "Unknown mailer".
I am trying to use the standard Solaris X.86 mailtool.
If you can help then please do. Perhaps somebody could
mail me their working sendmail.cf file, it would be
most appreciated.
Mike.
Our current sendmail.cf -basically the default shipped with solarisX86

# General configuration information
# local domain names
#
# These can now be determined from the domainname system call.
# The first component of the NIS domain name is stripped off unless
# it begins with a dot or a plus sign.
# If your NIS domain is not inside the domain name you would like to have
# appear in your mail headers, add a "Dm" line to define your domain name.
# The Dm value is what is used in outgoing mail. The Cm values are
# accepted in incoming mail. By default Cm is set from Dm, but you might
# want to have more than one Cm line to recognize more than one domain
# name on incoming mail during a transition.
# Example:
# DmCS.Podunk.EDU
# Cm cs cs.Podunk.EDU
#
# known hosts in this domain are obtained from gethostbyname() call
