Hi, My domain-name (local, only local) is AAA. My /etc/resolv.conf is : [root@P4 root]# more /etc/resolv.conf search AAA nameserver 203.146.237.237 nameserver 203.146.237.222 As I have problem with sendmail often queuing my mails for hours (using smtp or sendmail to send it), I was wondering is this could be the problem. Here is the maillog for one message being queued : Jul 13 10:25:30 P4 sendmail[3980]: i6D3PUGP003980: from=<phd2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>, size=772, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<1089689130.2851.28.camel@xxxxxx>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] Jul 13 10:25:30 P4 sendmail[3980]: i6D3PUGP003980: to=<userx@xxxxxxxxxxx>, delay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=30772, dsn=4.4.3, stat=queued Excerpt from this page : http://publib16.boulder.ibm.com/pseries/en_US/files/aixfiles/resolv.conf.htm A search entry defines the list of domains to search when resolving a name. Only one domain entry or search entry can be used. If the domain entry is used, the default search list is the default domain. A search entry should be used when a search list other than the default is required. This is not true on my computer, as I don't have any DNS server locally. My question : can I remove "search AAA" and can it be the cause of my problems ? If somebody got an idea ... mean in simple technical terms as I am not really fond of MTA ;-) Philippe -- Philippe, Chiangmai, Thailand
