Hello All,

First, I would like to thank all who replied to my other OT message last 
week. I have SMTP_Auth working well thanks to all replies.

I am unable to send from one user to to another on the machine, now. At 
least she is locked-down! But, a bit too much for functionality.

Jun 19 13:08:11 mxt sendmail[10596]: j5JH8BVY010596: from=root, size=54437, 
class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<200506191708.j5JH8BVY010596 at mxt.1bigthink.com>, 
relay=root at localhost

Jun 19 13:08:11 mxt sendmail[10596]: j5JH8BVY010596: 
to=dnsadmin at 1bigthink.com, ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, 
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=84437, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], 
dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]

Any suggestions for fixing this that would not expose me? Is this due to 
the authentication that I am enforcing for SMTP or is it a relay issue?

Ask for my sendmail.mc if neccessary. I have 127.0.0.1, localhost, 
{IP-address}, hostname listed in
access and cw file.

Thanks,
Glenn PArsons
