Critical Sendmail Problem
2007-12-24 20:06:00
I am facing a problem with sendmail.
Let me explain the setup here.
I am primarily using Sendmail as a MTA to send mails
to my Exchange Server, which is my primary mail server
to whihc all my clients connect.
and Sendmail is used to relay all my mails which gets
generated by Gnats to my exchange server.
Everything was fine till recently.
I faced my first problem when we added a new database
entry inGnats and i should say its pretty well
documented the i see no problem with the
configuration.But the mails stopped comming to my
exchange server.
I went thru man pages , then from there i run
newaliases command then mails started flowing in
again.
But today without any changes the mails stopped again.
and this time the command did not help.
The only entry i have in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf is that
of my exchange server ie hostname.domain.com and the
rest are untouched which came with the OS.
I am using solaris 8.0.
The reason i feel its a sendmail problem is that gnats
is generating the mails and its all spooled into
/var/spool/mqueue and i see all the mails there but
not forwarded to my Exchange Server.
I did kill sendmail process and restarted it but no
luck.
Please do help me regarding the same.
Waiting for your response.
