This problem should be corrected by the last sendmail errata that has gone out. greetings, Florian La Roche |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.0.0; Linux) Description of problem: /etc/mail/mailertable entries are recognised for local email. However, when email is received from a remote host the 'check_rcpt' rule-set is triggered. This rule-set does not check against any mailertable entries and therefore does not regard the domains listed in mailertable as local. A relaying denied error is then produced. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 8.11.6-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Configure a mailertable entry (virtual.com procmail:/etc/procmail.rc) that passes mail for virtual.com to procmail (in mail filter mode) for delivery. 2. Verify that sendmail resolves this correctly as follows: sendmail -bt > 3,0 someone 3. From the local machine send mail to someone and confirm via the maillog that the procmail recipe specified in mailertable was correctly selected as the delivery agent. It is not necessary to see the mail all the way through to delivery, however, with a correctly configured procmail.rc the username can be picked up as an argument to the procmail recipe and mail can manipulated before delivery to a 'virtual' user. 4. From a remote machine send mail to the machine configured above (using mail -v). Actual Results: It can be seen that the RCPT message results in a rejection. Examining the sendmail logs indicates the rejection originates from the check_rcpt rule-set. Expected Results: The check_rcpt rule-set should have recognised the virtual.com domain as being local because there is a mailertable entry for it present.
