Ouch .. to technical for me ;-) So I have an idea. As I am on a dialup connection, when sendmail is launched, I still don't have any DNS set up (they come from my ISP). So could it be the cause of my problem ? What I can see, but not sure 100%, is after being connected, if I restart sendmail, or if I flush the queue, all the next mails, even hours after, will be sent correctly.
