Hi All, I've got a recent, default install of 4.4 that doesn't seem to be able to send email locally. /var/log/maillog is full of the (somewhat sanitized, [[]] indicates replaced text) message below:
Dec 2 13:34:47 melanie sm-mta[23205]: lAS6U6nI026028: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, delay=4+12:04:41, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=19565145, relay=[[domain.name.net]]., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [[domain.name.net]]. relevant lines from netstat -an tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1.587 *.* LISTEN tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1.25 *.* LISTEN relevant lines from ps ax 25550 ??

Escape character is '^]'. 220 melanie.[[domain.name.net]] ESMTP Sendmail 8.14.1/8.14.1; Sun, 2 Dec 2007 13:54:08 -0500 (EST) In addition to the telnet above, pf.conf has: set skip on lo. So i think it is not a firewalling issue. As far as I know, I haven't modified anything sendmail related. Certainly I have not modified any sendmail configuration from default. I'm running the generic kernel. I set up an alias in /etc/mail/aliases today, but this problem seems to have been present since install. I know sendmail is running and it seems like it should be accepting mail, can anyone suggest a next step? I want to be able to receive the daily/weekly/etc mail, not to mention mail from cron jobs, etc. TIA, Paul
