[TriLUG] Sendmail question

[Jon Carnes]

No problems. Try this first:
  nslookup -sil
  set q=mx
  yyy.com

This should return the mailserver information for domain yyy.com

If the domain info is missing (but it *should* work) then check out your
/etc/resolv.conf and see what you are using for a DNS server.

Good Luck - Jon Carnes
