I'm having some problems with sendmail in 3.0. Here is my setup. I have one NeXTStation (N1) that handles mail for another (N2). N1 stays on all the time so that the other N2 can be powered down. The MX records on our campus mail server point first to N2 and then to N1 and then to itself. This has been working fine for some time with NeXTStep 2.1. Now things are broken. Here is the error message: <<< 553 N1.domain config error: mail loops back to myself 554 <user@N2.domain>... 554 Service unavailable I tried this with both the provided sendmail.mailhost.cf and my previous one from NeXTStep 2.1 with the same results. Finally, I can't find the running deamon when I do ps -aux. How the heck are things working now? There is no sendmail.fc so I guess that the config file is read in every time it's needed. I can't kill the sendmail because I can't find it.
