Hi !

When I send a mail as root to root@earth.brammeke.dyn.ml.org it works
fine. But when I send a mail (also as root) to
root@brammeke.dyn.ml.org, it just doesn't deliver it.

Then I run mailq. This is the output:

earth:/root # mailq
                Mail Queue (2 requests)
--Q-ID-- --Size-- -----Q-Time-----
------------Sender/Recipient------------
NAA00214       36 Fri Jul 31 13:50 <root@earth.brammeke.dyn.ml.org>
                 (host map: lookup (brammeke.dyn.ml.org): deferred)
                                   <root@brammeke.dyn.ml.org>
NAA00534       44 Fri Jul 31 13:08 <root@earth.brammeke.dyn.ml.org>
                 (host map: lookup (brammeke.dyn.ml.org): deferred)
                                   <root@brammeke.dyn.ml.org>
earth:/root # 

As you can see, I tried it twice.

Also, when someone sends a mail to root@earth.brammeke.dyn.ml.org, the
'earth.' gets stripped of somehow (I think by the DNS) and it send the
mail to: root@brammeke.dyn.ml.org. I get an error from the postmaster
(the person that sent it gets one too), so the mail reaches my Linux
computer.
I guessed it doesn't recognise it self on just brammeke.dyn.ml.org.
So I added some lines to /etc/sendmail.cf (exept for the first one):

Cw localhost

Cw 192.168.0.1
Cw brammeke.dyn.ml.org
Cw brammeke
Cw earth.brammeke.dyn.ml.org
Cw earth

It still doesn't deliver mail locally...

Anybody knows what is wrong here and how I can solve it ???

Pls let me know asap...
(if possible a cc or bcc to my e-mail: bdispa@bigfoot.com)

Tnx...
