Dear all,
Many thanks for all advise and help...
I did try by putting [EMAIL PROTECTED] @ 1st line as below in
/etc/mail/access
# by default we allow relaying from localhost...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 550 Spammers shan't see sunlight here
localhost.localdomain RELAY
localhost RELAY
127.0.0.1 RELAY
Then, makemap hash /etc/mail/access.db < /etc/mail/access and restart
sendmail...
but no luck, it still the same...
Any idea? Is there any setting that I need to do in sendmail.cf or other
place, cause sound like whatever changes that I did in /etc/mail/* doesn't
take any affect??? I do tried by using netconf to change but, still the
same...
Another thing, what is the different if I put reject in access and put it in
deny?
Thanks in advance....
rdgs,
gary
