First we need to create a baseline...Do you get any error messages, or does sendmail just appear to hang? Can you ping from this machine? Do you have a firewall setup on the box? Do you have 'sendmail_enable="YES"' in /etc/rc.conf? Do the following and perhaps post the output so we know what stage in the game you are at: # cat /etc/resolv.conf # dig freebsd.org # dig @204.101.251.2 freebsd.org Every time I have had sendmail problems, it has always come back to DNS failures.
