[cobalt-users] MX perl sendmail issue



Please Help...

I have a Raq4i with all updates installed. One of my clients hosts their mail in house and my ISP provides DNS so I had them set up an MX record. Email works fine using POP clients. The problem is with a perl script. I got to the root of the problem buy using sendmail from the command line. /usr/sbin/sendmail -bv user@xxxxxxxxxx produces a user unknown. Basically, sendmail ignores the MX record and tries to send the mail locally. I deleted the site from the box at which point /usr/sbin/sendmail -bv user@xxxxxxxxxx noted that the mail would be sent correctly. When I put the site back on, I got the original error again. Through Google searches, I have found many people with this same problem but no resolutions. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
