I have domain.com virtually hosted on my RAQ3. I have an mx record for
domain.com pointing to a totally different mail server (mail.domain.com).
All works fine, however if a person visiting any web page on my RAQ3, uses
sendmail (or a script using sendmail, like the much ridiculed formmail.pl)
the RAQ3 tries to send it locally instead of sending it to the mail server.
Is there a way to prevent sendmail from delivering locally on my RAQ3?
In other words, can I configure it to always use mailer=esmtp instead of
mailer=local regardless of who the recipient is?
I don't want there to be any local mailing attempts at all on the RAQ3.
Everything needs to be relayed by my mail server (totally different machine)
I've tried to explain this before and I've never had a response. Surely
there are others that use their RAQ for virtual web hosting and a different
machine to virtually host the mail. I really appreciate any suggestions you
may have!
