Can somebody tell me why this is happening? I'm sending a message, using
mail, from root on the badger2 machine and addressing it to
"perry@genesis-data.com" The problem is that "mail", in conjunction with
sendmail, immediately "relays" all outside domains to the "mail.badger1.net"
mail server. I *do not* have "DS" defined in sendmail.cf. Why doesn't this
e-mail message get sent tp the mail exchanger for the external domain? My
other servers running sendmail work just fine (samples below)
