Als, as with everything involving shredmail(tm), you have to have all the related incantations done correctly and in the right order. In particular, check your resolv.conf, and make sure that your NeXT can reach out to the DNS server and fetch the records. IIf you lack a resolv.conf, get one from your network adminsitrator (or mfcf) and check that the domain line in it doesn't cause your sendmail to decide that your hostname is something like foo@uwaterloo.ca.uwaterloo.ca... Like I said, **all** your incantations! --dave (the postmaster, who therefor hates sendmail) c-b -- David Collier-Brown, | davecb@CCS.YorkU.CA | lethe!dave 72 Abitibi Ave., | Willowdale, Ontario, | York Postmaster and CANADA. 416-223-8968 | occasional email consultant.
