    Hi folks

     

    I am having an issue with sendmail. Prior to a round of system upgrades from AIX5.3 to AIX7.1, sendmail was working fine.

    However since the upgrade, the relay server will not accept any mails from a domain it does not recognize.

         5.1.8 Domain of sender address jackass@intenaldomain2.com does not exist

     

    This is an internal mail server, and there is reasons for using non recognized domain names. I understand this was introduced to stop spam and so forth, but on an internal domain, I want to get rid of those restrictions.

    The config files seem to be melting my brain at this point.

    # FR-o /etc/mail/relay-domains

    in /etc/sendmail.cf, and restart sendmail. Note that I haven't tested this, so it may not help at all.
