<p><font size="2">> Possibly, the whole line would have been nice!</font></p>
<p><font size="2"> Here's the whole line:</font></p>
<p><font size="2">Sep 6 17:30:45 home sm-msp-queue[11614]: h85D9arc008082: to=postmaster, delay=1+08:20:30, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=15064715, relay=[127.0.0.1], dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]</font></p>
<p><font size="2">> Presumably this is being
<br />> logged by a sendmail process? possibly a sign that sendmail isn't
<br />> listening on the loopback interface. You can find out by doing...
<br />> IIRC RedHat's sendmail by default listens only on 127.0.0.1, maybe
<br />> someone has changed this to an IP of an external interface? </font></p>
<p><font size="2">But you are right and this confuses me. If I set up sendmail options with:</font></p>
<p><font size="2"> Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA</font></p>
<p><font size="2">then I don't get any incoming mail. However if I set it up with the public IP it works fine. Is that how it's supposed to work?</font></p>
