By default sendmail only listens on the loopback interface (127.0.0.1), and it needs to be reconfigured to listen to any other interface. Check in /etc/mail/sendmail.mc for a line DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl Comment that out, and then restart sendmail. Hope this helps. -- Douglas Furlong Systems Administrator Firebox.com T: 0870 420 4475 F: 0870 220 2178
