Hi!
I need all mail (also local) from two machines to be routed to a
mailserver and retrieve it via UUCP from there. After having a look into
sendmail, I made some changes to sendmail.cf, the same changes on both
machines. However, one of the machines gives me the following errors
when the nightly cleanup sends logfiles to root:
/etc/aliases: line 13: MAILER-DAEMON... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 14: postmaster... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 17: bin... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 18: daemon... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 19: games... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 20: ingres... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 21: nobody... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 22: system... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 23: toor... cannot alias non-local names
/etc/aliases: line 24: uucp... cannot alias non-local names
The other machine seems to work ok. I'd be glad if somebody could give
me a hint.
To the original sendmail.cf, after installing FreeBSD 2.1.0, I made the
following changes:
Cw: added the machines name after localhost
DM: added the domain to route mail to
Dq: made a few changes, but that looks ok
OP: uncommented Postmaster
S98: added:
R$~O $@ $1 @ $M user->user@do.main
