I have the same problem. It looks like it's fixed in Fedora: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=131179 It's fixed in sendmail 8.13.2 (http://www.sendmail.org/releases/8.13.2) This is probably problem in MS Exchange configuration: http://www.mmmug.co.uk/blogs/nweb/archive/2009/03/28/26631.aspx I can't verify it... See you PetrR The cataddr error is caused by TLS negotation phase between Exchange and Sendmail. There is upstream errata (2004-08-24) and patch available for cataddr errors: http://www.sendmail.org/releases/8.13.1 http://www.sendmail.org/patches/parseaddr.c.cataddr.8.379 This patch was also merged to sendmail-8.13.2 by upstream and I assume it is the same piece of code as described in sendmail-8.13.2 changelog mentioned in comment #1. This patch is applied from sendmail-8.13.1-2.el4 up, thus this error couldn't appear. Please could you reinstall sendmail-8.13.1-3.3.el4 and recheck? Hello. I can still see this error messages in my logs, but as you wrote - it caused by MS Exchange. I'm using sendmail-8.13.1-3.3.el4 and I can't reinstall it. As far as I remember MS Exchnage can be configured to work well with Sendmail using TLS negotiation so you can close this ticket. Thank you PetrR OK, thank you, closing. |
