However you can use it for receiving email directly only when you have the MX for your domain pointing to the host running sendmail. For outgoing mail, the default configuration with FC4 can work with little modifications. If you want to deliver all the mails to your ISP's SMTP server for further relaying, just define that SMTP server as SMART HOST in your sendmail's cofiguration (/etc/mail/sendmail.mc --> /etc/sendmail/sendmail.cf). You also have the option of directly delivering mails to other domains through sendmail though some domains may not accept it depending upon their configuration and policies and your IP address. For forwarding the mails, you can use the .forward file in your home directory but mails will be delivered outside only if sendmail (or some other MTA) is running. -- Manish -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
